Welcoming 2026 with an office clean-up and dinner!

It’s a tradition to do a big clean-up to welcome the New Year. The CEE members re-organised and deep-cleaned our student’s office, Now we have a fridge, a snack/beverage station and a common room for meetings! Afterwards, we went for a 铁锅炖 to treat ourselves :P

Hike Qixia Mountain in Autumn

CEE lab and Ziel lab jointly hike in Qixia Mountain at its best time!

Welcome dinner to WeiMing and Chen

The CEE group is delighted to welcome two enthusiastic new students. To celebrate our team suddenly tripling in size, Jie, WeiMing, Chen, and Jinlin went out for a barbecue. We had a great time exchanging MBTI types etc. The food was so tasty that we forgot to take a group photo! We’ll be sure to get one at our next gathering in December.

Goodbye dinner with Summer Research student, Xu Ge!

Ge spent all her summer in the lab and Nanjing University Xianlin Campus to invent a easy and standardized way to evaluate the strength of species interactions (competition, parasitism and predation) and used it to understand the not-subtle difference that micro-climate had on species interactions. We will miss you, Ge, and we wish one day you will come back to our lab to further pursue your research interests!
