Dr. Oliviero cannelli wins the prestigious Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship
Dr. Cannelli MSCA project METRICS is awarded funding from the HORIZON-MSCA-2022-PF-01 Action. This fellowship fosters cross-disciplinary high-impact research through a collaborative project across CFEL-ATTO group (Germany), FERMI (Italy) and Class 5 (Germany). The work will focus on the development and application of advanced X-ray spectroscopic techniques for the study of molecular clusters in metalloproteins. Congratulations Oliviero!
