Yesterday was the award ceremony of the @_KVAB Science Communication Awards 2024. I was honoured to accept the award in the name of my @brubotics colleagues @BramVDBorght, Gabriel, Hendrik, Niklas, and myself. Thanks to @VUBrussel and @VUBEngineering for the support!

Today marks the final day of the 2024 Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on Robotics, which was preceded by a Seminar (GRS) I had the pleasure to chair this year. I had an amazing week with many new insights, ideas and connections. I hope to see you again in 2026!
