• Nhung Nguyen, University of Konstanz, covering following core discussion areas:"Options between university research and industry; What options do you have after your phd?; Fundings and workshops to create your own startup/make a small business out of your research"

• Ruth Birner-Grünberger, TU Wien, with a talk on “Proteomics and metabolomics to study lipid metabolism”

During the retreat, participants engaged in a range of activities aimed at fostering both academic exchange and unity. The first evening kicked off with a pub quiz and a contest of students vs. PIs on topics beyond science: with categories in music, European royals, and geography resulting in the victory of the students.  The following day, the attendees enjoyed a visit and a tour of the picturesque Esterházy Castle in Fertőd.
