BioRecNet in short

Nordic Network on Biomolecular Recognition

Following on the NordIMM program - BioRecNet widened the toolbox of advanced bioanalytical methods to cover e.g. proteomics and various nucleic acid based recognition methods. A key aim within BioRecNet was to facilitate build-up of collaboration within this area between Nordic participants.
