From an international master’s programme to cuttin From an international master’s programme to cutting-edge marine research. 🔬 In our latest EU-CONEXUS Alumni Spotlight, we meet Maqbool Ahmad, a graduate of the EU-CONEXUS Joint Master’s Programme in Marine Biotechnology, who is now undertaking a joint #PhD between the Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ) and KU Leuven in Belgium. In this clip, Maqbool shares how his current research uses environmental DNA and metagenomics to better understand plankton communities, biodiversity, and how marine ecosystems respond to environmental change. It’s a fascinating insight into where an #EUCONEXUS journey can lead - and how knowledge gained during the programme continues to shape his research today. 🧐🧪 #europeanuniversities #AlumniSpotlight #MarineBiotechnology
🌊 From the Baltic Sea to the Mediterranean: @klaip 🌊 From the Baltic Sea to the Mediterranean: @klaipedauniversity startup Inobiostar has completed a new phase of field testing for its innovative oil spill clean-up technology, InnoAerogel®, in Athens. The trials were carried out with the Agricultural University of Athens through the EU-CONEXUS alliance. Researchers assessed how the biodegradable sorbent performs under Mediterranean conditions, including higher salinity and warmer temperatures. Made from recycled paper waste and oil-degrading microorganisms, InnoAerogel® offers a sustainable alternative to conventional sorbents and has already shown approximately twice the efficiency of comparable products on the market. Following testing in France and ongoing trials in Finland, the Athens fieldwork brings the technology another step closer to wider application. 🔗 Read the full story to learn how EU-CONEXUS cooperation supports research-based innovation and helps scientific ideas move closer to real-world use. #euconexus #europeanuniversities #startup #technology #innoaerogel
