The CGAT crew comes to Groningen for Coptic, good food, and a boat ride. We missed Nic Baker-Brian this time and @goodacre.bsky.social had to depart before the boat ride this morning, but a great get together! We welcomed new CGATer Todd Klutz!

We have extended the call for applications to July 30th for a post-doc position in the Frankfurt-Leuven Project “Commentary on the Ecclesiastical History of John of Ephesus.” The successful candidate would not necessarily need to move to Frankfurt to take up this position.
