Our lab had our annual year-end celebration on 16 Dec. We had a lot to celebrate this year. Congratulations to Geetika, Seep, Jean and Louis for graduating; as well as Akshaya and Chris for finding their life partners. Also a fond farewell to Yingying, Anna and Jerome.
It was raining cats and dogs but thanks to all the delicious food, it has been a fantastic party!
We had a very successful showcase of our lab’s research this year at MicroTAS in Kaohsiung, Taiwan with 2 oral presentations by Lor Huai and Louis as well as 3 posters presentations from Terry’s and Geetika’s work.
