Last week - on September 25-27, 2024 - we gathered for the first GET-IN training event in the beautiful city of Nice. It was wonderful to reconnect, catch up, and discuss science. It’s inspiring to see how engaged our DCs are, with their sharp thinking, and their genuine interest in their peers’ projects.

After a day of project reviews, they learned the basics of vectorology from our top-notch PIs, Els Henckaerts, Els Verhoeyen, and Rik Gijsbers. Gael Debauve completed the scientific training by familiarizing us with analytical tools and regulatory expectations.
On the final day, Joeri Wielandts provided an excellent and interactive training on “giving and receiving feedback”. Playing with LEGO brought us back to our youth and helped us improve those soft skills essential at any career stage. The course concluded with an in-depth training on project writing from Thomas Gallagher, Editor of the Journal of Gene and Cell Therapy.
