On April 19th, the whole Marilia consortium meet up online with their EC Project Officer and technical reviewers for the Final Review Meeting
MARILIA project ended on the 28th of february of this year. For the last 30 months, a multidisciplinary team of european research centers and private companies worked towards the development of a breakthrough pathogen detection test of water, which reduces the time and performance of the assay and, at the same time, it is cost-effective.
Marilia last project meeting took place at the AIT, in Wien, Austria.
The main aim of the meeting was to provide an overview of the final work status of the project, being this the last progress meeting and being held only a few days prior the project ending.

Today the first batch of Marilia's kit has been packed and shipped to selected labs for on-field testing. During the project, the consortium developed a complete and simple kit that includes everything needed to test drinking water for pathogens
Marilia final progress meeting will be hosted by AIT in Wien the 24th of February. This session marks a fundamental and final milestone, since Marilia is now officially in the last stage of its project life, with only few weeks to go, before the end of the project.
Ivo Crnolatac from Institut Ruđer Bošković appeared on a scientific program on Croatian national television (HRT) as a guest speaker to talk about the newly assigned Nobel prize in Chemistry. During the interview, the researcher also mentions Marilia and the ambitious objectives of this EU-funded project.
The whole Marilia consortium met in Genoa, Italy on 15th and 16th November 2022 for the sixth project General Assembly, after last one in Rome this summer. The meeting was a crucial step for the definition of key elements of the exploitation plan. For this reason, aspects were validated from a technical-scientific point of view and the results obtained during the project were collected and highlighted.
Marilia results were presented at Computational Chemistry Day 2022, a yearly meeting of all students and researchers interested in the fields of computational chemistry and molecular modeling. It was hosted by Rudjer Boskovic Institute in Zagreb on Saturday, September 24.
Marilia’s GA5 meeting was held on the 8th and 9th June at Day One’s offices in Rome. This was the first physical progress meeting since the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic and the earthquake that hit Croatia in 2020, therefore this was the opportunity for all the consortium partners to actually meet face to face.
