First conference travel since 2019

The end of July saw my first big in-person conference since Covid-19 arrived with a trip to ISBE in Stockholm. It was wonderful to catch up with so many friends from far afield and to spend a week discussing new research ideas with people. My first trip to Sweden as well, so had a fun exploring Stockholm in the time off.

I gave a talk on my new social networks R package which you can read more about here and here.

Part of now my now well-established ISBE tradition was to take part in the conference football tournament which was a lot of fun! Was great to form a team where (almost) everyone had a connection to the University of Exeter in Cornwall where I spent a lot of time as  a PhD student and postdoc.
