The last part of this ceremony are presentations from all research group formed by summer campers. They gladly showed their study and work in the past week in a certain lab, contents including high energy physics, quantum information, soft material, and many other subfields of physics. Some of them focused on theoretical background, and some of them spent more time on experimental details.
During presentations, China daily and a local media had an interview of representatives of summer campers.
Although 2014 FPISC officially closed, the friendship between campers never ends. After the ceremony, all international students traded Chinese students with dumplings to say thanks for their hospitality during the camp.
