For our 2026 lab retreat we went into the mountains earlier this week for some team building and great discussions about science, with a nice lunch sandwiched in-between. We all returned to the lab energised and ready to get results in the coming year!

Last week was great at the GRC on Physics of Viruses & Protein Cages in Tuscany! Learned a lot, enjoyed the exchanges. #ProudPI moment, my group showed up with posters that clearly belonged to the same lab.
