We noticed that news sections on many academic websites often become outdated. Our own site was no exception, so we decided to remove all old posts – making the three-year gap invisible. Now, we’re excited to start fresh with a completely renewed news section, bringing you up-to-date stories, updates, and highlights from our work.
