Sun, fun, gatherings, exams, meetings… The iscience group got together for some semester-end activities before starting a well-deserved summer break. 🐬

During the time of the 2026 World Cup, we got to go out with some old and new colleagues for a nice meal. Incidentally, we chose a place where the game was shown right next door so we got to enjoy front-row seating!

After the end of the semester, we also got together for a traditional BBQ at Ulf’s house to celebrate another successful semester of research and teaching. 🍾
Unfortunately, we were too busy talking amongst the group, having a good time and enjoying the food that everyone brought to take any photos of the evening… So here is an AI-generated impression of what the gathering could have looked like from the outside, including feline and canine iscience companions!

We hope everyone else has also had a great summer and will start into a new academic year recharged and full of drive and motivation! 🌴
