This time last week BIOPOLE community gathered for the Annual Science Meeting at Northumbria University in the lively city of Newcastle upon Tyne. Thank you to every single one of you who joined the meeting virtually or in-person!

The meeting lasted for three days and was full of exciting and interesting presentations delivered by project members, project partners, and stakeholders (the BIOPOLE community). Thank you all for taking the time and sharing your knowledge and invaluable expertise!

BIOPOLE Annual Science Meeting in Newcastle was a success due to everyone’s involvement. The poster sessions, breakout groups, and plenary discussions were all very interesting and productive. Thanks also to the Programme Advisory Board for their important feedback.

We are eager to implementing the suggested changes, actioning the feedback, and distributing outcomes of the breakout and plenary discussions, kindly collated by the rapporteurs, to the BIOPOLE community.

BIOPOLE is also very grateful to organisers who supported us in such a brilliant venue at Northumbria University!

We are looking forward to doing it all again around this time next year in Cambridge!
