SUMMARY:Packaging-related Strategies for Addressing Sustainability in Food Chains
DESCRIPTION:UNIgreen’s JRC3 – Food Technology\, Quality and Safety Webinar Series: Episode 1 \n\n\n\nThis event\, organized within the UNIgreen JRC3 Food Technology\, Quality and Safety\, brings together researchers\, students and  food industry professionals to discuss packaging-related strategies for addressing sustainability in food chains. \n\n\n\nThematic\n\n\n\nPackaging plays a key role in food quality preservation and in the prevention of food wastage. For this reason\, food packaging is\, by definition\, aimed at sustainability. However\, some approaches in the design may improve its environmental performances.  \n\n\n\nPackaging lightweighting\, the use of materials from renewable sources\, the adoption of compostable materials and increasing circularity through the incorporation of recyclate are potential strategies that need to be assessed while maintaining the centrality of the primary role of packaging.  \n\n\n\nWhen?\n\n\n\nOn Thursday\, 12 February\, 2026\, join us for an online event\, from 11:00 to 12:00 CET with expert speaker and engaging discussions. \n\n\n\n\nREGISTRATION\n\n\n\n\nWho should join?\n\n\n\nResearchers\, students\, food industry professionals and anyone curious about food quality preservation and in the prevention of food wastage. \n\n\n\nSpeaker\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFabio Licciardello\n\n\n\nAssociate Professor of Food Science and Technology at the Department of Life Sciences\, University of Modena and Reggio Emilia \n\n\n\nLecturer of “Food Packaging” and “Product and Process Innovation”. Coordinator of the Coordinator of the UNIgreen Joint PhD Course in Agri-food Science\, Technology and Biotechnology (STEBA). President of the Italian Scientific Group of Food Packaging (GSICA).

SUMMARY:Advances in Plant Molecular Physiology
DESCRIPTION:UNIgreen’s JRC1 – Biochemistry & Biotechnology Webinar Series: Episode 5 \n\n\n\nTheme\n\n\n\nTitle: Advances in Plant Molecular Physiology  \n\n\n\nUnlocking the potential of sustainable agriculture starts with advances in plant molecular physiology. This knowledge is key to driving the innovation supporting the transition to more sustainable food production systems.  \n\n\n\nJoin our webinar to deepen your understanding of the molecular mechanisms behind plant life\, adaptation\, and resilience; and discover how these insights can inspire the next generation of farming practices. \n\n\n\nWhen?\n\n\n\nOn Thursday\, 19 February  2026\, join us for an online event\, from 10:00 to 11:00 CET with an expert speaker and partake in engaging discussions regarding molecular mechanisms! \n\n\n\n\nREGISTRATION\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProf. Piotr Gawrownski\n\n\n\nAssociate Professor at Warsaw University of Life Sciences

SUMMARY:Aliens and Flames - When Fire Ecology Meets Invasion Ecology
DESCRIPTION:UNIgreen’s JRC4 – Biodiversity\, Forestry\, and Agroecology Webinar Series: Episode 4 \n\n\n\nThis event\, organized within the UNIgreen JRC4 Living Lab framework\, brings together researchers\, students\, and forest practitioners to discuss aliens and flames – when fire ecology meets invasion ecology. \n\n\n\nThematic\n\n\n\nIt is widely known that plant invaders normally benefit from disturbance. Fire is one of the best examples of this relationship.  \n\n\n\nThe relation between fire and invasive plants can be bi-directional when fire promotes plant invasions and these promote fire\, leading to a feedback loop that is in many cases hard to break.  \n\n\n\nHere we explore this relationship using examples mostly from Portugal and other mediterranean-type regions. Given the changes in climate\, this topic is also relevant for countries and regions where fire occurrence is expected to increase in the future.  \n\n\n\nWhen?\n\n\n\nOn Tuesday\, 24 February\, 2026\, join us for an online event\, from 14:00 to 15:00 CET with expert speaker and engaging discussions. \n\n\n\n\nREGISTRATION\n\n\n\n\nWho should join?\n\n\n\nResearchers\, students\, forest managers\, and anyone curious about forest ecology and sustainability. \n\n\n\nSpeaker\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoaquim Sande Silva\n\n\n\nProfessor at Polytechnic University of Coimbra \n\n\n\n\n\nJoaquim Sande Silva holds a BSc and a PhD in Forestry from the University of Lisbon\, and a Master’s degree in Environment and Renewable Resources from the International Centre for Advanced Mediterranean Agronomic Studies (CIHEAM)\, Greece.  \n\n\n\nHe is Professor at the Polytechnic University of Coimbra\, Portugal\, where he teaches undergraduate and graduate courses in fire ecology and fire management. He has been a Visiting Professor at the University of Bari\, Italy (2019\, 2022\, and 2025).  \n\n\n\nHe has led or currently leads six nationally funded research projects and has authored more than 50 peer-reviewed articles indexed in the Web of Science and Scopus databases\, primarily in forest ecology\, invasion ecology\, and fire ecology. In addition\, he has authored over 190 non-indexed publications\, including conference proceedings\, book chapters\, and technical reports\, and has served as editor of six books. He has served on six national scientific expert panels on forest fires\, appointed by the Portuguese Government and the Portuguese Parliament. He is currently a member of the Board of Directors of the environmental NGO League for the Protection of Nature (LPN) and a member of the Portuguese Society for Forest Science.
