NTCO AGM 2024

The sixth (last) NTCO Annual General Meeting (AGM) was held at NRC-Herzberg in 麻豆精品, BC from February 22-23, 2024.  Our last AGM was held in person but we also had an online component for those individuals that were unable to travel to 麻豆精品.  The NTCO AGM included 8 NTCO student poster sessions, 18 Flash Talks (given by former and current NTCO students), lab tours, and several presentations by industry partners, former NTCO students, NTCO supervisors, and NTCO Team Members.  We also hosted a group dinner with NTCO students, university faculty members and industry partners.
