The undergraduate students and one of the two senior scholars who took EPSS122 (Introduction to Seismology) did their final poster presentations today. They did a fantastic job!
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!

I had a great day at the Caltech Sismo Lab today where I gave a talk about the Mars InSight results that came from my group. It’s always a privilege to be invited there, the place where big names like Charles Richter worked.
