The December graduation this year was a bumper crop of PhD graduates from the Science Faculty – and also a bumper crop from Structural Biology. Mehdi Sharifi Tabar and Taylor Szyszka from Joel’s lab, Ngaio Smith (in absentia) from Jacqui’s lab and Camilla Faoro and James Walshe (in absentia) from Sandro’s lab *all* completed the final formality before they can wear their PhD gowns to their new labs each day… Congratulations to all – it’s a big achievement!
