Always nice to visit cows 💚 In SEMPRE-BIO, we are further investigating the use of digestate for microalgae cultivation. Also, we will calculate the area needed for algae cultivation to actually treat the extra digestate that the farm cannot apply on land More on this soon!

So proud! My first official PhD students just defended her thesis 🤩🎉 The topic was a bit out of my comfort zone but that is why we were two promotors 💪 It was a pleasure guiding her on how to discuss and valorize her data in an honest and impactful way 🤩

New paper out! This is a mini publication serving as a quick intro to microalgae and carbon capture, highlighting their true potential for this (which is not really there with the current situation). So it is a paper to stimulate critical sense about the topic 😁
