This work was a collaborative effort of an amazing team of researchers from different areas of expertise. Led by @rturba.bsky.social and @cmarin.bsky.social with the participation of @elinatakola.bsky.social @michaelgbertram.bsky.social among others. It was a really fun and enlightening experience.
