    We're delighted to share an interview with one of our talented da Vinci Competition finalists, Esther Lagemann-Mäteling. She presented on Modal Scale Decomposition in Turbulent Flows in 2023. Esther told us: "It is a great honor and privilege to be selected as a Da Vinci finalist as this is such a prestigious award in the European fluid dynamics community. Since we are all in a very early stage of our academic career, it was great to see that fluid dynamics experts appreciate our work as a valuable contribution to our community."
