Lab Traditions
We believe in celebrating the milestones, achievements, and special moments that make our time together in the lab unforgettable. Here are a few traditions we cherish:
Celebrations with Donuts and More!
- Sweet Moments: Whether you’ve submitted a paper, won an award, or it’s your birthday, we mark these milestones with donuts for everyone! It’s our way of saying “great job” and sharing in your success.
- Welcoming Newbies: When new members join, Hemanth kicks things off with donuts, coffee, or tea at 4pm to make sure everyone feels at home from day one.
Annual Lab Retreats
- Bonding Beyond Science: Every year, we take a retreat to a destination chosen by the whole lab. It’s an opportunity to connect over science, hike, and play board games—but also just to have fun and relax together.
Other Events
- We organize various other gatherings throughout the year, ensuring that everyone feels included and can participate in the fun! From team-building activities to social hangouts, there’s always something on the horizon.
We’re all about creating memorable experiences together, both inside and outside the lab. Let’s make the most of our time together and celebrate the little wins along the way! 🎉
