We are pleased to share that several LAI members joined the annual CENTURI PhD & Postdocs Retreat, which took place from 28 to 30 April 2026 at the Moulin de Vernègues. The three-day gathering brought together PhD students and postdocs from across the CENTURI community for a mix of scientific and creative sessions, among them a graphical-abstract session and the “Terraforming” workshops on the future of interdisciplinary research, alongside outdoor activities and many chances to build connections across labs. LAI was represented by Marie Dessard, Jad Sleiman, Ahmad Awada, Jana El Husseiny, and Coralie Gastinel. Many thanks to the CENTURI team and the Organising Committee for putting together such a memorable retreat.
