“Science is all about exchanging and discussing ideas, exploring new paradigms and pushing boundaries. The Viennese way of fostering the scientific enterprise is unique and special –  networking while participating in the Fächerpolonaise, friendly competition during the Gallop-Polka and discussing the latest breakthroughs while mastering the Linkswalzer. Agreements to exchange reagents are sealed with the Damenspende and long-time collaboration forged at 4am in the Café Schwarzenberg while enjoying a Goulash soup and a Seidel – I wish could be there!”
