Beside working hard together our group also gets regularly together outside of work. Among others we hold a summer and winter seminar are held over a few days in the Scottish Highlands: each year in either Cromarty or at Mar Lodge in the Cairngorm National Park since 2005.
These are occasions for enjoying good cooking and having fun together and overcoming national and cultural barriers. Members of our group come from all corners of the world (from 4 continents and more than 10 different countries).

TESLA seminar summer 2019 in Cromarty
We enjoyed again a full lecture programme with additional workshops on mindfulness and statistics in addition to a relaxing pub-quiz and an energizing Scottish Ceilidh. We took advantage from our international team and enjoyed this time Arabian and Chinese Cuisine in addition to a British BBQ.
The TESLA Group with guest-lecturers Jioji (UClan, University of Central Lancashire) and Kim (U o Cambridge): Ahmed, Ali, Ibrahim2, Sa’a, Amnah, Nan, Lisa, Caroline, Xueying, Shaun, Ngeti, Martin, Wladiana, Daniel, Eva, Kim, Silvia, Jioji, Abdullah, Camilla, Joerg. We sorely missed Andrea, Ken, Louise, Laurie, Lizzie, Da, Angstone, Magdalena and Dennis. Nevertheless, this year we have had members with 13 different nationalities (Saudi Arabia, Algeria, Nigeria, Germany, China, France, Thailand, Scotland, Eswatini, Brazil, Netherlands, Fiji, Italy) attending the meeting. A truly multi-cultural experience with more than 4 hour lecturing and 10 hours discussions…
