Students
I work with a team of excellent students. We call ourselves the FPSG. What this acronym means is left as an exercise for the reader (most people want the “G” to stand for “Group”).
I am very proud of my academic family (and slightly extended academic family). Here is a recent group photo (Summer 2023):
