Since the project started – in July 2020 – and a Virtual kick-off meeting in October 2020, all CHAIR events had so far been held online, due to the Covid-19 pandemic and subsequent travel limitations.
In May 2022, for the first time, our consortium gathered in-person in the city of Strasbourg (France) – where the coordinating team is located – for a 2-days workshop dedicated to Project Management and Intellectual Property. This meeting was a great opportunity for our ESRs to meet each other, but also meet their secondment supervisors, discuss their projects, but most importantly: have fun! 🥳
So, following the workshop, the group headed out to the French town of Gerardmer for a retreat week-end! 🥾⛵️🍕🍻🎳
