Then the rectors, scientists and doctoral students representing our European University took part in a debate concerning the challenges for science in Europe in the 21st century. The discussion was followed by less formal meetings where researchers, administrators, and doctoral students could get to know each other better and talk about the opportunities offered by the T4EU alliance.<\/span><\/p>\n
