Open Science Retreat
I am almost back home from #openscienceretreat23 which was a great experience! Thanks to all. Now, I am super hyped about #OpenScience and going from talk to walk (my first unconference ever)
In the train after attending the #openscienceretreat23 I asked myself what this week brought me personally. Next to meeting all these awesome people who share the same values, this retreat format stimulates impromptu conversations in nature/during drinks. I had so many people asking me to share my thoughts on career options, on starting your own business and getting into #openscience policy that I am going to develop my mentoring skills to continue doing this. Rewarding and insightful! #happy
@HeidiSeibold incredible week indeed! Thank you for organising #OpenScienceRetreat23! I had a blast and am filled with positive energy as a result
