The week before Easter, at a time when most Norwegians would spend their holidays skiing in the snowy mountains, I travelled to Vancouver to attend this Keystone symposium.
I used my free days before and after the meeting to visit the main sights of this lovely city and spot some Canadian wildlife, including a killer whale family. I was impressed by the high quality of life in Vancouver, with metropolitan flair right next to the 4 km2 large Stanley Park, which is packed with trees reaching to the sky and a range of wild animals.
At this Keystone symposium, there were 270 participants from 24 different countries attending the busy schedule including 9 different scientific sessions and 3 poster sessions. The audience was scientifically diverse, nonetheless everyone shared a common interest in immunometabolism. The majority of attendees worked in diabetes research like myself, yet there were several scientists representing other research fields investigating for example aging, rheumatoid arthritis or allergies.
My poster was displayed on the third evening of the conference and I soon struggled with loosing my voice, since I presented my work to numerous people stopping at my poster and engaging me
