Thanks to the Julian Schwinger Foundation, through 26th July to 2nd August, we were thrilled to meet world leading scientists at the village of Peyresq in Nice of France! At an altitude of 1530 meters, the village was peaceful and cool. We were living with the villagers and had fun at the bar. Flat band physics was the main topic and hiking was the main activity.
The people from HKU:
From the near peak of the village we can have an excellent view of the tail of Alps!
We are glad to meet with excellent academics and dedicated researchers from all over the world in the beautiful coastal city of Quy Nhon, Vietnam for the ICISE conference in 2026 summer. We enjoyed the inspiring discussions with them on the physics of strongly correlated electrons, meanwhile experiencing and immersing ourselves in Vietnamese culture. Here, we also met some students from Tsinghua University and Peking University, and had a wonderful dinner together. It's an impressive journey!
We are glad to have Dr. Zeno Bacciconi from ICTP, Trieste, Italy and Mr. João Inácio from University of Würzburg, Germany visiting us in the spring days of Hong Kong in 2026. We enjoy their inspiring discussions with us on physics and appreciate their willingness to learn and fit into our local culture. Scientific and cultural exchanges such as these, will benefit all the people involved in the long run. Welcome!
