ISR Christmas & Winter Solstice Celebration

 

Everyone gathered in the Mobile Robotics Laboratory for the lively event of the 2019 celebrations of Christmas/Winter Solstice, on Thursday, December 19, at 5 PM.

It was an excellent opportunity to have fun and spend an enjoyable time together while partaking in some holiday treats. This year activities included the ISR Xmas Quiz, a fun and interactive game in which the scientific and cultural knowledge of our researchers and collaborators was challenged. Even though the winning team “DSORIUM” took home a coveted prize, it was quite a close call, as every team showcased a great competitive spirit and grasp of the 40 questions in completely different fields. The top three teams ranked as follows:

1
DSORIUM
70%
27201
2
Quizztiano Ronaldo 
65%
25888
3
Neuronautics
68%
24988

 

After the quiz the traditional ISR Gift exchange took place and, as always, it was a joyous display of creativity, with plenty of unusual (yet useful) gifts.

Thank you to everyone who took part and wishes for a joyous Holiday season and a prosperous New Year 🎄
