Lukas Sadowski successfully passed his comprehensive exam. He celebrated with the traditional champagne in the lab, along with a trip to the rock-climbing gym (which he sorely missed during the month-long exam process). Congratulations Lukas!

Callisto MacIsaac was awarded a DAAD RISE Fellowship to enable her to work in the lab of Prof. Stefan Hecht at the Humbolt University in Berlin, Germany. She will spend 8 months in Berlin learning about the chemistry of graphene nano-ribbons. Congratulations Callisto!
