Dr rer nat, Magna cum laude

  • July 17th, 2008

After about 5 semesters, one paper, one erratum (submitted to JHRS) and one thesis, and after taking two oral exams and delivering one 30 minute talk on my research, I am now (modulo the week or two it takes to produce my certificate) entitled to the title of doctor rerum naturalium.

Next stop is the topology in computer science workgroup at Stanford, where I have accepted an offer for a postdoc research position up to 3 years (conditional on my good behaviour :-).

Congrats. Too bad I’m gone from Stanford in the fall. But my good friend (and topologist) is there.

Drop by the math department and say hi to the Licatas for me.
