And or course the very enjoyable few days together. We are looking forward to continuing the collaboration!

Of course, a visit to Munich at this time of year also called for some local culture: together, we made our way to the Wiesn 🍻 and visited the Munich Science Communication Lab (MSCL) exhibition on Planetary Health at Deutsches Museum.

A central theme of our conversations was bias in computational research, what it is, how it gets into our research, and how we can deal with it. The discussions were challenging in the best way and highlighted how important interdisciplinary research is. 🧠📊
