Please join us for a panel discussion concluding the Biocolours2024 conference.

The panelists, who are also the keynote speakers of the conference, will share their highlights of the event, which brought together researchers from around the world to explore and research alternatives to the currently used, synthetically produced, oil-based colourants. The panel discussion will be moderated by Professor Riikka Räisänen, chair of the conference organizing committee.
