We had a great last dinner at Home Plate Barbeque!




Thank you so much to MicroPort Scientific for inviting us to come to China for this wonderful trip!!! We all had an amazing time and are sad to be leaving! I am so proud to be a part of MicroPort's one big family. Shu and Joy- you were the perfect hosts! We look forward to seeing you again, hopefully soon!
