January
We had a farewell event with Bolun Li and Sheir Zaheer. Bolun is going to return to his home, NUIST, Nanjing, and Sheir got the new job in a deep learning company in Seoul. Congratulations both of you, and we will miss you!
We had a group workshop and dinner. Virtually, several alumni also joined, Hyungsuk, Ben, Vaibhav and Sai.
Hyungsuk KImm (the 1st graduate in the lab) will start an Assistant Professor at Department of Plant Science, Seoul National University. This is a great news for all of us! So he is the 2nd SNU Professor from the lab after Prof Youngkeun Song (1st postdoc in the lab). Interestingly, Youngkeun is now sabbatical leave at UC Davis while Hyungsuk is a postdoc at UC Berkeley. They met in Berkeley and visited my old office. What a history!
Lab is welcoming new members. Dongok will join as a software engineer. Changmin Yin will join as a postdoc who will take the lead in NRF-Midcareer project (BESS). Huaize Feng will join as a PhD student who will focus on field hyperspectral and SIF studies. They are going to join soon!
