David defended his thesis this spring with aplomb. We think it was the tastiest defense yet, with homemade treats made by Nicole! David is moving on this summer to become a patent agent at a bay area firm - we better keep his email handy...
Congratulations to Dr. Burkhardt!

Mid summer party at Jo's house
by stohrgroup, Aug. 15, 2009
For the past three years, Dave have been hosting our group summer parties with the theme of "good food, good life". We enjoy greens from his backyard and the happy cow delivered from the Morris farm. This time, Jo is taking us 40 years back, when he first travelled across the atlantic, to see how 3 days of peace and music have changed the world.
peace, particle trace, and speckle.
