For several FWO candidates, CRIG organized test defences with experts in cancer research as jury (including members of the CRIG steering committee and other voluntary principal investigators and postdocs). Since this CRIG initiative is evaluated positively by the candidates and the jury, CRIG will repeat this initiative and plans to organize test defences for the next FWO calls as well.
Congratulations to all awarded CRIG researchers, and we wish them good luck with their promising research projects!
