Sad to learn of the tragic passing of Lorena Abad Crespo: https://www.plus.ac.at/geoinformatik/department/team/abad-crespo/?lang=en

Lorena joined us at the R Dev Day @ PLUS 2024, held at Paris Lodron Universität Salzburg, the day after the useR! 2024 conference.

A talented scientist lost too soon.

Lorena Abad with her small group at the R Dev Day. The group of 5 are sat round desks in a classroom with their laptops, drinks bottles and a mess of charger cables. They are turned to face the camera, smiling or laughing as the photo is taken.
