The external advisory board was composed of six highly accomplished personalities from the academic and non-academic sector, whose work and interest are closely related to the different aspects of the EPOC agenda. Tragically, one of the advisory board members, Jasmina Arifovic (
in memory), passed away soon after the start of the project. The EAB will provide suggestions with respect to the research and training activities in EPOC and will participate in EPOC activities.
