Prof. Boccaccini said: “I am very happy that Bikramjit chose our Institute to spend 6 months of his sabbatical period, having been successful with the Alexander von Humboldt (AvH) Foundation Award. These last 6 months working together have been very fruitful and several new projects have been initiated in collaboration with our PhD and Master students.
