CICECO discusses energy and interdisciplinarity in Research Summit 2024

CICECO took part in the Research Summit 2024 at the University of Aveiro, held from July 16-19 under the theme "50 Years of Research at the UA: Challenges for the Future." This event brought together international and national experts to discuss key research topics and the future of research at the University of Aveiro (UA).

Professor Luis Carlos, one of the six UA commissioners, played a crucial role in curating the discussion topics. He invited the UA community to share ideas about materials and energy and moderated a session featuring esteemed academics, including Professor Maria Helena Braga (University of Porto), Professor Fátima Monteiro (University of Lisbon), and Professor João Rocha.

Following the plenary sessions, João Coutinho presented CICECO's vision for the future alongside various research unit coordinators. His pitch demonstrated how CICECO has promoted interdisciplinary, transdisciplinary, and multidisciplinary research approaches, outlining the unit's future direction. He emphasized that while research centers are already addressing these challenges, it is crucial to include organic units in the discussion as well.
