We had a very productive and inspirational lab retreat. On the first day, everybody presented current and past work, we had a “walk&talk” to catch up with each other and explore the area, and we ended with a fantastic workshop exploring some topics of interest and future directions (and ended with drinks!). The second day we started with a workshop about strengths and weaknesses, discussed lab organization and ended with the opportunity to sit together one-on-one for mentoring/scientific exchange. And of course there was time for a group picture! Thank you all that helped organizing this retreat!
