Retreat (2021)

RTG Retreat, Hotel Steinsgarten, Giessen

November 11, 2021

This was the first time since the pandemic outbreak in March 2020, that all RTG members met together again for a retreat event. The program included 12 PI-talks and a poster session, where all Ph.D. students presented the status of their projects. The main purpose was for our second-generation Ph.D. students to get to know each other and to obtain an overview on all other students’ projects and the research foci in the RTG group.
