Thursday thought: meetingless Mondays should be a thing. Best way to start a work week for me: time for some focus and deep work with a fresh mind.

Thursday thought: Marketing has the '4 p's'. Communication in science is often limited to 4 other p's: Powerpoints (or other slides), Papers, Posters and Pints (or coffees). Alright, and may be an 'E' for Email. Still limited. Happy to be part of the movement that is pushing to move beyond this.

The most special apple I have ever held. It was many years (probably ~9) in the making. Turns out it is possible to grow an apple tree from seed and get apples 😍.

Impression of a workshop during the general meeting of the Einstein Telescope Organisation (ETO) this week. Look at these colleagues + friendly guests to keep us sharp, with their brains buzzing over an article for a (semi-internal) newsletter we are setting up. #einsteintelescope

It was a good day, full of useful meetings and sessions. Now it's time to unwind. (Working on further building the #einsteintelescope Organisation (ETO) during our general meeting at Elba this week)

On board for several days of Einstein Telescope Organisation building. (It seems Elba is kind of the Italian equivalent of Terschelling) #einsteintelescope

Last week at Nikhef's yearly gathering (Jamboree), I led a session on internal communication. As part of this, participants had a conversation about learning topics, and could either 'mail' (select) or trash topics. Putting results together now and looking at them. Feels like unwrapping gifts!
