The SENNET consortium held its third Network-Wide Training Event in Montpellier, France, from 7 to 10 April 2024, bringing together researchers and project partners for a week of scientific exchange, training and collaboration activities. Hosted by ICGM CNRS Montpellier and the Université de Montpellier, the event combined expert lectures, research presentations and technical discussions within the framework of the Horizon Europe programme.

The programme included guest talks by Prof. Stefan Kaskel from Dresden University and Prof. B.
