Lena Kloock and Andrea Arensmann had the opportunity to present their research at the 10th World Congress of Biomechanics in Vancouver. As well as attending interesting presentations from various fields of biomechanics, they also had time to catch up with old contacts and make new ones, which will be helpful in their future work at the institute. Many thanks to the University of Münster’s Equality Office for the financial support that made this trip possible.
