My current project, Project Eleanor, started on April 21, 2025, because the day before I had finished my position as a lecturer (see this blog). Since then, I have been working on the project for exactly one year. Now, it is time to pass the project on to new researchers.
On April 21, 2026, by pure coincidence, it was my turn to give a talk at a departmental seminar. It was also my birthday. As a result, the occasion felt a little like a retirement lecture.
Life is strange, full of coincidences. Sometimes, pleasant ones.
I will continue working on the project for a while, until my master's student finishes her work here at the end of May and the new postdoc arrives in July.
After that, I will still be involved in the project, but in a supporting role.
