Join us for the next O2 Seminar on 18 February 2026 at 13:00. Carlos Rumbo Lorenzo from ICCRAM – Universidad de Burgos will present their work on evaluating the antimicrobial properties and toxicity of new compounds aimed at tackling multidrug-resistant bacteria.
You are kindly invited to attend the next O2 Seminar, where we will explore how atmospheric measurements can support and verify national climate commitments. In this seminar, Dr Dafina Kikaj from the UK’s National Physical Laboratory will present insights from the UK GHG monitoring network, illustrating how robust, well-designed observation systems can move climate policy from pledges to evidence-based assessment.
We are pleased to announce that the scientific article “Harmonized human biomonitoring in European children, teenagers and adults: EU-wide exposure data of 11 chemical substance groups from the HBM4EU Aligned Studies (2014–2021)”, published in the International Journal of Hygiene and Environmental Health, has received the 2025 Best Paper Award for outstanding scientific contribution among articles published in 2023.
The O2 Seminar will take place on Wednesday, 21 January 2026, at 13:00 (CET) and will feature Maria Rubio and Jure Ftičar from the Environmental Informatics Group. The seminar, titled “Participatory approaches in environmental health & supporting ICT-based tools”, will explore how ICT-based tools support participatory methods such as citizen science and stakeholder engagement in environmental health research.
We kindly invite you to attend a scientific seminar exploring the terrestrial CO₂ cycle, with a focus on soil processes and karst underground atmospheres. The seminar will be presented by Dr. Kristina Krklec from the University of Salamanca.
From 19 to 21 November 2025, the FutureFoodS Autumn School took place at the Biotechnical Faculty UL, in collaboration with the Jožef Stefan Institute. The three-day programme combined scientific lectures, practical insights, field visits, and collaborative project work.
