Mid-term meeting of SELECTA: a European Training Network on smart electrodeposited alloys for environmentally sustainable applications
Artikel i övriga tidskrifter, 2017
Integrating sustainability with technological
progress is becoming one
of the major challenges in modern
society. Since research agendas are
mainly driven by the push for incessant
economic growth, there is the
risk of reaching a critical point where
technological advances will no
longer be possible due to the imbalance
between demand and availability
of natural resources. To face
this issue, the European Training
Network ‘Smart ELECTrodeposited
Alloys for environmentally sustainable
applications: from advanced
protective coatings to micro/nanorobotic
platforms’ (SELECTA) was
launched in January 2015. SELECTA
aims to integrate technological progress
with environmental sustainability
concerns, which is one of the
major ‘Societal Challenges’ listed in
the Horizon 2020 Work Programme.
