Last week, our group member @k_vollheyde took part in the @MSCActions organized #ScienceIsWonderful fair in Brussels.
It´s so rewarding to see shining kids´ eyes when sharing our excitement for science. @Roocfer1 and I shared our fascination for plants and the products they make at our booth “The Plant Factory” at the #ScienceIsWonderful fair. Thanks to @MSCActions for this great event.
