Just two years after its founding in 2018, SCL was disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic. This was followed by a major transition, as the group relocated across institutions and national borders. After its move to Germany in 2023, the group undertook a full rebuild of its laboratory infrastructure, completing renovations in the summer of 2025. Since then, SCL has been actively reestablishing its experimental capacity, with all setups and associated software developed in-house. With the core infrastructure in place and experiments underway as of 2026, we are resuming our research program and advancing beyond where we previously left off.
