The Spetses Summer School is a unique educational and networking opportunity for graduate students and postdocs, in a relaxing and fun beach environment. Spetses Island in Greece is not only the perfect location to meet colleagues and discuss science, but also to find a new postdoc or meet your new employer. Hence, Spetses Summer Schools are extremely popular among and useful for both students and instructors. A very special feature are the “dine-with-the-PI” events, where students can enjoy dinner with one of the speakers and chat in an informal setting about nearly anything (science, life and life-science). These dinners are an excellent way to get to know the speakers a little better and to foster personal relationships that extend beyond the classroom or laboratory, hopefully benefiting the students in their academic and professional careers. This year we are focusing on the interplay between chromatin and metabolism.
