NEWS - I passed my PhD viva!
Luke Holden - 6th July 2024
Last Monday, I passed my viva with very minor corrections. I'm grateful to my examiners James Mullaney and David Rosario for making it a pleasant experience, and for their interesting and helpful discussion. I'm also incredibly grateful to my supervisor - Clive Tadhunter - for his support and guidance thoughout my PhD.
Pending some minor corrections, I will be officially be a doctor of astrophysics, which has been a dream of mine for at least the past 11 or so years. Unofficially, it seems to be tradition to be called 'doctor' once you've passed your viva, so i'll take the title of (unofficial) doctor for now!
