Change of Project Officer
We received a message from our Project Officer, Hans-Hartmann Pedersen, on 18th December 2009, informing us as follows: "I am writing to inform you that I will be making a small move within Directorate G "Industrial Technologies". On the 1st of January 2009 I will be moving from Unit G2 "New generation Products" to Unit G4 "Nano- and Converging Science and Technologies".
We would like to wish Hans all the best in his new role and to thank him for all the support and guidance he has given to the 4M NoE over the last 4 years.
Hans' successor as project officer for 4M will be Mr. Kai PETERS.
