PhotoSynH2 organised and hosted the Summer School on “Synthetic Biology / Biological Production of Green Hydrogen” that took place in Porto (Portugal), on the 19th-20th June 2024 (https://www.i3s.up.pt/event.php?v=316). This Summer School was open to graduate and undergraduate students, including those from the EIC Portfolio projects, and was a hybrid event (see program, below). The first day (hybrid) involved talks from invited keynote speakers and the PhotoSynH2 PIs responsible for each WP, and the second day (in-person) involved a practical workshop. In total, 31 people attended: 16 on the first day (including 3 people online, one from the portfolio project DualFlow) and 15 attended both days (including people from the portfolio projects H2STEEL and OHPERA).
