We are back from Germany! After a quick detour to visit the Sauer lab in Wurzburg, Toby and Donna met up with Rosey and Heather in Berlin for the PicoQuant Single Molecule Workshop. Posters were presented with lots of good feedback and Toby gave the shortest talk of his life. It was fantastic to see so many different labs from all over the world presenting state-of-the-art fluorescence research and in between the onslaught of information that the conference provided many ideas for new and ongoing research projects were hatched. A river cruise in beautiful weather and dinner at the top of the Radio tower capped off a truly wonderful trip.
