Best poster presenter award for Niloufar Behzadpour during the INTENSE and DBI2 joint retreat

In November 2025, the DBI2 consortium organised a joint retreat together with the INTENSE project and the SoMa Lab was present!

Vasiliki Giagka gave a Keynote talk during the INTENSE project retreat on the topic of Conformal Neural Interfaces for Chronic Applications, and Niloufar Behzadpour won the best poster presenter award! Congratulations, Niloufar!

Over three days, participants reflected on the major scientific milestones of the DBI2 and INTENSE. The programme included a dedicated career development session for early‑career researchers. Two thought‑provoking panel discussions focused on Lessons Learned from INTENSE to DBI2 and Generative AI for Science and Society.

The retreat concluded with cross‑theme discussions that helped shape DBI2’s future research directions.
