Meihui’s UCL Training

Our newest member, Meihui Li (PhD student at VUB), has successfully attended the UCL Archaeological Soil Micromorphology training course.

Through her first academic training in UK, she has acquired new knowledge and practical experiences on Micromorphology from researchers and collegues gathering at UCL this February. Currently, she is working on her first DE study: “Dark Earths from the Historical Centre of Oudenaarde (BE)”. We are looking forward to her study progress and following outputs.

Another successfull workshop in Brussels

2023-11-20

Our November meeting in Brussels was a success!

We've had fascinating microscopy sessions exploring organic remains, coprolites, parasite eggs, and phytoliths in diverse Dark Earth sediments across Belgium and Switzerland.And to top it off, had the pleasure of gathering the teams for some quality time together. It was a good opportunity to bond and further strengthen our collaboration.
