??CARE-C leads the way with Dust-DN!
We are excited to announce that the Kick-off Meeting of the first doctoral network in Europe dedicated to atmospheric mineral dust (under the prestigious Horizon Europe programme) is scheduled for Monday 20 January 2025!
The Dust-DN project, funded with €3.5M through Marie Sk?odowska-Curie Actions, will train the next generation of scientists in atmospheric dust research while addressing critical societal and environmental challenges.
??Key objectives of Dust-DN:
??Study the fundamentals of dust microphysical properties
??Explore the influence of source regions on atmospheric dust
??Assess socio-economic impacts on health, aviation, and energy production
?Investigate dust’s role in the global climate system
With 8 core partners and 15 associated partners from academia, research, and industry, Dust-DN brings together expertise from across Europe and beyond.
??Kickoff meeting: 20 January 2025
??The public section of the kick-off meeting is available as pre-recorded videos on our YouTube channel: https://lnkd.in/dftH43CP
