The SPP Winter School 2022

The 2022 winter school took place as an in-person event at the Youth Hostel on Borkum island from March 7th-11th. 47 researchers from the priority program as well as guests joined for an intense week of presentations, discussions and hands-on workshops.

As this was the first in-person get together of the priority program, many attendees met their colleagues from their tandem projects for the first beyond the online meetings. Throughout the week this allowed for even better planning of future work within and across projects along the research areas of the SPP.

The weather showed its most sunny and friendly side allowing for an ideation session to be held as a walk on the beach. An excursion into the tidal shallows provided new insights into a completely different field of research.
