Former undergrad who worked in our group Helen Feng successfully defended her PhD thesis at the Woods Hole Institute of Oceanography! Congratulations Dr. Feng!
On 16 May, my graduate student Erik Weidner successfully defended his PhD thesis. It was a remote defense so we are extra excited to celebrate in person during the graduation ceremony on campus in a little over a week from now! Congratulations Erik!
