On July 30, 2024, the first in-person meeting of the ALL-MICRO project took place at the University of Trieste (UniTs), focusing on strategic updates and planning. Representatives from all partner institutions attended in person for the first time. The meeting included the introduction of Professor Donati, the future Director of Life Sciences at UniTs, who highlighted the importance of microscopy and regional collaboration.
Key updates included confirming a new project logo, assigning tasks to be completed by October, and appointing Davide Porrelli (UniTs) as the Board of Experts (BoE) coordinator. Discussions also covered data ownership policies, emphasizing institution-level management while ensuring some data is available for official reporting.
Plans for a network portal, led by CNR-IOM, are underway, with completion expected by April 2025. UniTs will host the network server, providing secure access to partners. The event concluded with refreshments and a tour of the Advanced Microscopy Interdepartmental Center (CIMA).
