I learned so much from the other keynotes Ida Milne & Robert Sullivan, and from many brilliant talks and discussions throughout. I'm really grateful to @maebhlong.bsky.social and the organising committee for this amazing invitation and opportunity, as well as for their generosity and hospitality.

Thank you Maebh, it was an honour to be invited :)

Thanks for following and for this lovely note Ragini; it's nice to be in contact here.

Congratulations Maebh (and Matt)!

Thanks for coming Tamara :)
