Collaboration Beyond PALMS - WP 4
Researchers and institutions participating in the FP7-PALMS project are involved in several other related activities that are not funded by the project. These associated activities may, however, provide important background and in some cases additional input to understanding the problems that FP7-PALMS deals with. For WP4 these collaborations have involved the following ones:
