EmpkinS PI Retreat
On February 23–24, 2026, the EmpkinS PIs met at the beautiful Schloss Hirschberg for an intensive two-day retreat. In a focused yet inspiring atmosphere, they reviewed ongoing projects, and reflected on the challenges of the past few months.
Beyond evaluating progress, the meeting provided ample opportunity to exchange ideas for new collaborative initiatives, identify potential synergies, and further strengthen the scientific vision of EmpkinS. The historic setting of Schloss Hirschberg offered an ideal environment for in-depth discussions, creative thinking, and productive networking among the principal investigators.
