Thank you so so much for Flux and everything surrounding it! You are amazing, and the conference was such a great booster shot of research energy and ideas for me. It was fabulous to meet people I’ve admired from afar, and to hear about the latest great things coming from your lab and others.

Thank you for inviting me to speak at Flux. I had an amazing couple of days, as did my lab members who were there. We learned so much and it was great to meet so many people in our area. Well done for organizing a fantastic inaugural meeting.
