The Dioxin2025

ON October 31 to December 8, several of us (Shizhen, Jun, Gan, Jabir, Habib) attended the 45th International Symposium on Halogenated Persistent Organic Pollutants, also known as Dioxin2025, in Atalaya, Turkey. Shizhen, Gan and Jabir gave oral presentations and each chaired a session; Professor Habib gave an oral presentation and raised lots of questions in different sessions; Jun manned a nice poster designed by 子洋. We met many friends and former group members, including  Paramita Chakraborty, Tom Harner, Perihan, Roland Weber, 刘国瑞, 袁博, 肖航 etc. Similar to Shizhen,  Perihan  and Tom Harner did their PhD in Lancaster with Kevin Jones; therefore they are 师姐/师兄. Paromita did her PhD  in our group from 2006-2009. This time she came with two PhD students of her. Akriti Ashesh is a PhD student from Bihar University of India, and her supervisor is Linthoi (centred in the picture) who worked in our lab for her PhD in around 2009. Amandeep works with Tom Harner in Environment Canada responsible for the GAPS network; and she is originally from Punjab of India, sharing the same language and culture with Jabir who is also from Punjab but on the Pakistan side. We stayed in a nice hotel and enjoyed the 7-days symposium. We also took opportunity to visit Istanbul . Strong exotic experience and nice science and social events!

Shared Birthday, Double Fun: Celebrating Zhao Shizhen and Shao Yingjian

On June 28, 2025, the Air Omics squad, postdoctoral fellows and Professor Tang Jiao gathered together to celebrate a shared birthday party of Professor Shizhen and student Yingjian. The celebration took place at Xiangzhiyuan, a  genuine Hunan cuisine restaurant.
We prepared beautiful flowers and a delicious birthday cake for the two birthday stars. As everyone enjoyed the cake and chatted together, the room was filled with warmth, laughter, and happiness. It was a joyful evening filled with laughter, great food, and a little birthday luck we all hoped to borrow!
