As the online #LancsSS20 start today, I am thinking back to the first day of #LancsSS19 last June. I love the morning registration – meeting the participants for the first time, chatting over tea & coffee, looking forward to a week of learning, friendship & fun! CASS

[An aside: Out of the four people facing the camera, three have become Drs in the period between #LancsSS19 & #LancsSS20 and moved to new careers - I am missing you so very much Dr. Irene Marin, Tanjun Liu and Doğuş Can Öksüz! And looking at you Raffaella Bottini, your turn next 😉!]
