Special Note
The PhasAGE Conference Scientific Committee has also decided to award an honorable mention to Professor Sonia Longhi for being the most active participant in the conference. Her interventions were essential to trigger the scientific discussions after each presentation and her questions and observations raised the scientific talks to another level. It was an honor to listen to her talk and now highlight this award. You are an inspiration for all the young researchers.
Thank you, Sonia!
