Group Photos Over the Years

Table of Contents

This is where we archive our group photos. Sadly, the photos listed below do not cover every year or everyone. You can find an up-to-date list of the current members and guests of our group as well as its alumni here. There are also additional photos here to give you an idea about our location and space.

The bottom pair, left-to-right: Avril von Hoyningen-Huene, Chris Robinson (who happened to be visiting our group from the University of Indiana at the time). The top pair: Raïssa Meyer, Sarah Tucker.
