Brian visited the lab of Prof. Xingsen Gao at South China Academy of Advanced Optoelectronics, South China Normal University. The university is located in Guangzhou University Town on Xiaoguwei Island. Prof. Gao and Brian were postdocs together over a decade ago in Germany and Fengyuan Zhang was formerly in Prof. Gao’s group before joining UCD to work towards her PhD. It was great to see their facilities, including their AFMs and wall of posters. Following the tour, we had a wonderful lunch and did some sightseeing. The whole team at SCNU was very kind and went out of their way to be welcoming! Looking forward to continued collaboration!
