News & Events
There is a lot going on in the NORA team and with Research Portal Denmark – we continuously update and expand our services, launch new development initiatives, and have plenty of information we would like to share with our users.
We regularly publish news on this page as well as communicating what Research Portal Denmark is all about and what you can use it for. We communicate through events of our own. In addition, you can meet us at conferences, workshops etc. where we regularly present Research Portal Denmark. A few times a year, we collect all the most important news in a newsletter, which we than distribute through our mailing list. The newsletter is, of course, published in both Danish and English.
If you have not yet signed up for the mailing list, do not hesitate to send us an email at nora.info@dtu.dk – then you are guaranteed the exciting news directly in your inbox.
