Italy. We look forward to seeing you on <b>Wednesday, June 24th, at 7:30 PM at
the Giardini dell'Arena</b>. </p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in;font-size:12pt;font-family:Aptos,sans-serif"> </p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in;font-size:12pt;font-family:Aptos,sans-serif">Because the weather forecast for the conference days looks clear,

Complimentary drinks and snacks (including vegetarian and vegan options) will
be available for trainees, but <b>everyone is warmly welcome</b> to join us!<br>

We hope you'll come along for an informal evening of networking, meeting fellow
researchers, and enjoying some time together outside the conference sessions.<br>

Hope to see you there!</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in;font-size:12pt;font-family:Aptos,sans-serif"><br></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in;font-size:12pt;font-family:Aptos,sans-serif">
