Webinar "Towards an improved partnership between Academia and Sciensano"

Sciensano and the Belgian universities, represented by VLIR and CRef, are committed to strengthen their partnership, contributing as such to a healthier society through state-of-the-art research. The signing of a memorandum of understanding and the drafting of a data transfer template are important first steps towards an intensified collaboration. We invite you to participate in this seminar, which offers you an excellent opportunity to get to know Sciensano better.
