On September 18–19, 2017, the MIMESIS Mid-Term Meeting took place at Weierstrass Institute for Applied Analysis and Stochastics. The academic and industrial supervisors from WIAS, University Oulu and the industrial partners EFD Induction, SSAB and Outokumpu and two representatives of the Research Executive Agency (REA) met in Berlin to discuss preliminary results of the project. The eight early stage researchers gave interesting talks about their PhD topics related to mathematics and steel production.

With a very positive feedback from the REA representatives, the MIMESIS team continues highly motivated into the second period of its project.
