In the beginning of January, our University Assistant Camilla Reis participated in the 58th Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences (HICSS) where she presented the theoretical part of her doctoral dissertation and participated in the doctoral consortium with fellow PhD candidates. 

Conference participations offer a great opportunity to connect with the international research community and exchange ideas across disciplines. The discussions with peers and fellow researchers provide new perspectives and constructive feedback that help shape future research projects.
Congratulations!

This year, the UFO once again organised a workshop for team building and preparation for the coming year. Key topics from research and teaching were discussed. Old projects were successfully completed, while new initiatives were launched. Together, we set clear goals for the coming year for the UFO, prepared teaching and worked on optimising the lectures.

The following day, a cross-country skiing course was organised as a joint team-building activity.

Here's to a successful new year with the UFO!
