In April, Ms. Cécile Figus PhD student of the Doctoral School of the University of Szczecin took part in Workshop 1 of the 21st Century Drilling MagellanPlus series. She was selected to be part of the biostratigraphy team, as the diatom expert. The workshop took place from 8 to 12 April at the BCR and MARUM (University of Bremen) in Germany. The project aims to re-analyse sediment cores from the Miocene (~23 to ~5 Ma [millions of years]), drilled in the South Atlantic, to develop digital drilling and refine the study of legacy material.
