Biofilm - threat to the oil industry
25 November 2009, UMB, Campus Ås, Akershus
The Norwegian University of Life Sciences (UMB) and the Norwegian Oil Industry Association (OLF) welcome you to a disciplin day on biofilm.
Frogrammet foreligger på engelsk, men vil bli gjennomført på norsk, basert på engelske lysark, med mindre utenlands deltakelse gjor at engelsk blir det naturlige arbeidsspråket.
