Covid-19 has had a huge impact on our life over the last two years but the vaccination has done its work and we have good hopes that we can manage upcoming variants with the new insights. Countries have opened up and international travel is possible again. ENMC is currently organising many face-to-face workshops, which are innovated with a professional hybrid set-up.
