The Physical Society of Hong Kong and the APS have arranged to host the Hong Kong Satellite Conference (MM2025HK) of the APS March Meeting from 16 to 21 March 2025. Some of the presentations at the Hong Kong venue can be livestreamed to the APS March Conference (MM2025) online platform at the same time, and attendees can watch the online presentations at the APS main venue remotely. For researchers who are unable to attend the conference in person in United States for various reasons, our conference will provide a valuable platform to present their research results and engage in academic exchanges with international partners.
