International scientific cooperation
The laboratory actively participates in the international scientific cooperation programs with the following organizations:
– University of South Florida, Faculty of Geology (USA);
– University of Leeds, School of Earth and Environment; Durham University, Department of Earth Sciences (England);
– Curt Engelhorn Centre for Archaeometrics, Mannheim; Christian-Albrecht University, Kiel, Earth Sciences Institute; Ludwig-Maximilians University, Munich, Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences (Germany);
