LiT.RL Throughout The Years
The Lab was established in 2009 and has had several energetic teams contributing to the Lab’s research projects and our consequent publications. See the most recent student profiles which typically include their own individual and unique research interests. Also, the Lab Director’s academic social media profiles reflect our collaborative track-record on ResearchGate and GoogleScholar.
