On 8 August, our group joined Prof. Meng Xin’s team and Prof. Liu Shangwei’s team for a hiking activity at MacRitchie Reservoir. The event provided a great opportunity for members to enjoy nature, connect across research groups, and strengthen team bonding before the start of the new semester.

The gathering also served as a warm welcome to the new members joining our group this semester. After the hike, some members continued the evening with a group dinner, making it a relaxing and enjoyable way to kick off the new semester together.
