2025 Annual Workshop

Clover Lab Annual Workshop

2024 - 2025

Overview

The Clover Lab Annual Workshop is an annual academic forum that brings together Clover Lab postdoctoral researchers, PhD students, research assistants, visiting scholars, and collaborators to share recent progress and discuss emerging directions in intelligent robotics.

The program typically features opening remarks, research talks, focused workshops, and dedicated discussion sessions. Each year, the workshop is hosted in a carefully chosen location so participants can experience local culture and spend time in nature—an atmosphere we believe fosters creativity, strengthens collaboration, and renews energy for research.

The Clover Lab Annual Workshop 2024-2025 was held in DaLi, China, from June 1st to June 4th, 2025.
