LEAD Retreat October 2025 |

October 15-17, 2025, Blaubeuren


Dear LEAD members and guests,

You are warmly invited to our upcoming LEAD Retreat taking place from October 15-17, 2025 at the Tagungszentrum Blaubeuren in Blaubeuren.

We have again prepared a program with a wonderful set of keynote speakers. The progam is still provisional and there is still some room for you to contribute to it to make this a successful retreat. Please enter your planned attendance for meals, accommodation and contributions below. Of course all personal data will be treated confidentially.


All documents and updates on the retreat will be communicated through a dedicated LEAD Retreat channel on MS Teams. If you have technical problems accessing the channel, please let us know and we will find a solution.


Feel free to contact us with any questions regarding the retreat through coordination@lead.uni-tuebingen.de.

We are looking forward to the retreat and to seeing you soon in Blaubeuren!


Best wishes,

Simone, Sophie and Philipp on behalf of the LEAD Scientific Coordination Team

Special Interest Groups (SIG)

Please indicate the title of your group or the group you would like to participate in this document on the MS Teams channel.
