Lovely having Maxime Coutant visit our lab and present his work to our team. Looking forward to seeing you again soon 👨‍🔬🌏👽

Action-packed few days and very thankful to have the opportunity to present on ProspecTER Project thanks to hard work from Sara Finnerty and Stan Li 李云海 #marine #lipids. Looking forward to collaboration with TU Dublin / OT Baile Átha Cliath, ATU Sligo and others

Next we have Louise de Chalonge talking about protocells and fossilisation on early Earth. #IOoL2024

Last week the ProtoSigns team had an incredible opportunity to attend a talk with former NASA astronaut Cady Coleman. Thank you Cady for a really exciting and inspiring presentation! 👩‍🚀🚀👩‍🔬

Valentina Foresta shared with us the current state of her ongoing project GenesisLinks about fossilization on Mars. #IOoL2024

#IOoL2024 was a full success! Many new connections were established and new friends were made. A big thank you goes to our amazing co-organizers Omer Markovitch, Celia Blanko, and especially to local host Yannick Geiger | @yannickgeiger.bsky.social who lead us through these exciting three days! 🙏👏
