The 30th bi-annual NECST Consortium members-only meeting, NECST30, was held at MIT on June 2nd, 2022. Attended by our research staff, outside collaborators, and a number of our consortium members, the room was packed! All enjoyed a long day of research presentations and took time during breaks and over lunch to renew connections amongst the consortium members - conversations and connection continued into the evening as the group adjourned for a boat cruise.
