After a long period of Corona-related lab closure, we are glad that we can restart -with restrictions- some of our lab work as of today. Especially for our foreign members the sitting at home was hard, as COPS PhD student Alfredo Rates nicely stated in an interview with Utoday. The waiting is not over yet for our undergraduates or external partners; they are not allowed in yet. Where possible we make experiments remotely controllable, so that more experiments can be done without physical presence.
