Actual thinking was done at our ENBDC #ThinkTank. Rough draft of a position paper at the end of the day, which means mission accomplished - so our Rijsttafel was well deserved.

Weggis is a bit cloudy this year, but gave us sunshine for the group picture on Thursday.

A diverse selection of talks and posters so far, as the workshop is midway.

If you’ve never attended the ⁦ENBDC⁩ workshop, join us next year: it’s the most interesting workshop on methods in breast biology and cancer I’ve ever attended. If you’ve never visited Weggis, read what Mark Twain said about it (upper right text in the photo)!

The ENBDC meeting in Weggis doesn’t really start until after a cup of Bachmann’s coffee.

The new boat is as shiny as the lake and presumably the upcoming science!

Excellent keynote lecture by Jacco van Rheenen at the 15th ENBDC workshop in Weggis 🇨🇭. Impressive 🔬 imaging, fascinating findings with translational potential for #breastcancer therapy! #mammarygland #mutation

A great talk by Joana Paredes, a newly elected ENBDC committee member 🎉, on secretome factors involved in #breastcancer #metastasis to the brain at the 15th ENBDC meeting in Weggis 🇨🇭.

Finalizing the ENBDC Weggis meeting in Switzerland with poste prizes and best short talk prize, the DeOme award. Best short talk : Jakob Sumbal
