Dear all,

Further to the email below, I am happy to confirm that the retreat date has been confirmed for the week commencing the 24^th March 2025.

It is likely that the arrival day will be Monday, with retreat activities taking place on the Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday and then flights home on the Friday unless you wish to extend your visit. The agenda will of course be confirmed closer to the date.

I will be in touch with each of you individually to confirm your visa requirements and travel for the retreat.

If you have any questions at all please do let me know.

Kind regards

Nicky

Subject: International Fellows at Sanger - Retreat 2025 - dates

Dear all,

I understand that you have recently been offered appointments as International Fellows at the Sanger Institute, congratulations, and we look forward to working with you.

I am working with Trevor Lawley and Sarah Hull on the management of the International Fellows programme and the organisation of the retreat which we hope to organise for early 2025. The retreat will take place on our campus in Cambridge and will bring together you all, as the new cohort of fellows, along with the existing cohort, faculty sponsors and other faculty members. It will be a week of useful events, with networking opportunities for you, along with a chance to visit the campus and Institute.

The dates we are currently looking at the for the retreat are as follows:

Week commencing March 3^rd 2025

Week commencing March 10^th 2025

Week commencing March  24^th 2025

Please could you let me know by return email if any of those dates would not work for you, or if you can currently attend for a week for all of them.

Once the date has been confirmed I will work with you to secure your visa and travel. We have hotel accommodation on site which you will be able to stay in for the duration.

In addition we are working with our comms team to promote the International Fellows programme and with this in mind I would be grateful if you could send me a photograph which you would be happy for us to use in internal and external promotions. Ideally this would be a head and shoulders shot, of high definition. A photograph taken on a phone should be sufficient as long as it is taken in as high as quality as possible.

I look forward to hearing from you regarding the above, and if you have any questions regarding this email please do let me know.

Kind regards

Nicky
