It’s that time of the year again: LBP retreat! Rudi D’Hooge and @markuswohr.bsky.social labs gathered together for 2 full days of science. A special thank you to Dr. Elodie Ey for bringing her expertise on animal research to this event!

During the first day, members from the @wohrlab.bsky.social shared their progress reports @parnian-saberi.bsky.social @tianhuawang.bsky.social @bvdvoort.bsky.social @Henry Werk 1/3

Nice completion of my core PhD work. (I personally like this story more than the 1st one🤫). Thanks to Markus and all other collaborators. ❤️

Wöhr Lab at @ibnsconnect.bsky.social having great time sharing exciting science and enjoying the amazing landscape. Now ready to bring new ideas and inspiration back to the lab 💪🏼 @ozgesungur.bsky.social @Theresa Kisko @tianhuawang.bsky.social
