๐ŸŽ‰ HUPO 2024 conference wrap-up ๐ŸŽ‰

Our BioGenies team โ€“ Michaล‚, Jarek, Krysia, Weronika, and Oriol โ€“ had an unforgettable week at HUPO 2024 in Dresden! Hereโ€™s the highlight reel:

๐Ÿ™๏ธ Sunday: arrival & sightseeing

We started the week with a stroll to explore the conference site and snapped a photo of the iconic Yenidze, a former cigarette factory with a unique design ๐Ÿ•Œ.

That evening, we picked up Oriol from the airport โœˆ๏ธ and headed to Sophienkeller to dive into local Dresden delicacies ๐Ÿฅจ๐Ÿ–.

๐ŸŽŠ Opening ceremony & networking

Sunday night kicked off with the opening ceremony and welcome reception ๐Ÿพ, followed by an Early Career Researchers Networking Night. Despite the darkness on our boat tour ๐ŸŒŒ, we made the most of it by networking with fellow researchers. The highlight? Watching as they joined two boats together โ€“ an unexpected twist to the night! ๐Ÿšข

๐Ÿ’ Monday: air hockey & more connections

Monday saw some friendly rivalry when Jarek and Krysia discovered an air hockey table! After an intense game, it ended in a tie ๐Ÿค.

Later, Krysia reunited with our colleague Dominik in the plenary hall,

and Jarek, Weronika, and Oriol snapped some fun group photos ๐Ÿ“ธ.

๐Ÿ“Š Poster sessions & interest

Each of us had poster sessions on different days, and it was exciting to see such strong interest in our research ๐Ÿงฌ๐Ÿ“ˆ. The steady traffic at our posters highlighted the growing excitement around our work!

๐Ÿฒ Dresdenโ€™s culinary gems

Between sessions, we sampled even more homemade Dresden dishes โ€“ fueling our research discussions and conference exploration ๐Ÿฅ˜๐Ÿ’ช.

๐ŸŒ‰ Foggy adventure at Bastei Bridge

We carved out some time to visit the famous Bastei Bridge. Though the heavy fog limited the view ๐ŸŒซ๏ธ, it added a mystique that made for an unforgettable (and chilly) adventure! ๐Ÿž๏ธ

โœˆ๏ธ Oriolโ€™s travel twist

Oriolโ€™s return flight was suddenly canceled due to an airport strike ๐Ÿ˜ฑ. But no worries โ€“ Michaล‚, Jarek, and Weronika swooped in ๐Ÿš—, picking him up from his hotel to drive him back to the airport.

๐Ÿฐ Friday: Dresdner Zwinger exploration

After the conference wrapped up, Weronika and Jarek spent Friday exploring the beautiful Dresdner Zwinger โ€“ a perfect way to close out a memorable week of science and sightseeing ๐Ÿ›๏ธโœจ.

Thanks, HUPO 2024, for the inspiring talks, new connections, and unforgettable memories! Until next time, Dresden! ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ’ซ
