Nikhila, Abrar, and I all enjoyed the EMBO workshop in Copenhagen! We are also thankful that the organizers put so much effort into the Hybrid format, where Deba (Hehnly lab Postdoc) was able to actively participate and attend while staying in Syracuse. Nikhila and Abbi both presented posters and gave a joint presentation in Science Slam too, titled “The different roles a centrosome can play” (included photos below). I (Heidi) also gave a lecture titled “Centrosome positioning during lumen formation in the zebrafish Kupffer’s Vesicle”. We enjoying meeting everyone over the amazing coffee, snacks and meals, and are so thankful to the organizers for making this happen. We finished off the meeting with an awesome meal at Ark, a Michelin rated Vegetarian restaurant and then an afternoon at the most beautiful amusement park, Tivoli! Included are some photos below.
