1st C-BASC Thematic lunch (November 21, 2022)

The Center for Interdisciplinary Studies on Biodiversity, Agroecology, Society and Climate (C-BASC) organized its first thematic lunch on November 21 (at AgroParisTech).

Now that the majority of our laboratories are located on the plateau, C-BASC is launching a series of thematic lunches. Organized every 4 to 6 weeks, these events aim at getting to know each other better on a scientific level, in order to develop collaborations within the C-BASC community, composed of 15 laboratories and 5 partner Graduate Schools: Biosphera; Economics & Management; Geosciences, Climate, Environment, Planets; Life, Sciences and Health and Sociology and Political Science.
