We wrapped up the year with an unforgettable lab trip! Alumni joined us for games, Secret Santa, and a mouthwatering BBQ feast. The night lit up with karaoke and laughter, turning into a cozy sleepover.
The next day, we welcomed 2025 by picking fresh tangerines under the winter sun—simple, sweet, and full of joy. Here’s to more great memories and breakthroughs in the year ahead. Happy 2025! 🎉🍊
