Waving Mondays
To boost our team spirit and strengthen our collaborative efforts, we come together at Waving Mondays throughout the year. Waving Mondays are organised as field trips to the different partner institutes (UU, WUR, TUE and UMCU), each hosted by the representing members of the team. Waving Mondays will not only enrich our platform but also highlight the diverse perspectives within our consortium. Hands-on components are also included so that members of the team can dive into the world of each other's research field.
Past: Waving Monday 1. Crafting Stories
The first Waving Monday took place on February 26 in Utrecht. Gerbrand welcomes us at ‘his’ Utrecht University for a day full of stories.

10:00 Plenary opening: and Speedy Workshop Scientific Storytelling
11:00 Tour to NPEC
