The annual conference of the Society for Ambulatory Assessment (SAA) took place from May 26 to 28, 2025, at KU Leuven, Belgium – with multiple contributions by the lab Developmental Psychology and Research Methods. Not only did we enjoy the magnificent old town and the discussions with long standing and new collaborators, but there was also reason to celebrate: After the SAA Travel Scholarship (2023) and the Early Career Award (2024), Anna Jori Lücke has received the Best Poster Award at this year’s conference for her presentation of recent findings from our AgeLight project. Congratulations!
