Your preparation for the workshop: 

Please take some time to reflect on your Pathfinder project and its broader context. In particular, be prepared to explain the underlying long-term vision as well as concrete near-term milestones to the other workshop participants. Ensure that at least one member of your project group brings a laptop.


What happens after the workshop:

All project teams will begin working independently and advance toward proof-of-concept development. Progress will be reviewed at the NCCR annual retreat in September 2026, where teams will have the opportunity to receive feedback from the NCCR community. All teams will give a presentation on their project at a dedicated workshop in January 2027.
