“I have to say that I was expecting this workshop to be less productive, as other networking workshops normally are. However, I am leaving with a very great sensation of having a very productive day and have built potential future collaborations”

“Would have loved more time for S. Dyhrman to talk, and another one or two senior researchers to explain their experiences”
