We are very happy that starting next year Dyllon Randall from the University of Cape Town will be at our group as the August T Larsson guest researcher. He will spend one month per semester at SLU over three years, teaching, supervising and working with researchers at the NJ faculty.
Randall’s guest researchership will cement the collaboration between UCT’s Future Water Institute and the SLU. This partnership began in March 2020 when he was invited to work with SLU’s Kretsloppsteknik Research Group in the niche area of urine source-separation-based sanitation systems. Randall and the group’s Bjorn Vinnerås and Prithvi Simha are among a handful of global experts who have been systematically working to develop circular sanitation technologies.
About the program: The NJ faculty decided in 2011 to establish the August T Larsson Foundation Guest Researcher initiative to engage guest researchers within strategically important and prioritised fields at the faculty. The aim of the programme is to promote exciting and important research collaborations by inviting guest researchers from all over the world to enrich and be enriched by the activities at the NJ faculty and SLU.
