I had the honor of participating in Fastlane Week at TU Delft from March 18-20, 2013. I served as an opponent on the Ph.D. defenses of Dr. Thomas Schreiter and Dr. Femke van Wageningen-Kessels; Dr. Yufei Yuan also successfully defended his thesis. TU Delft has a long tradition of public doctoral defenses, and it was a terrific experience! Congratulations to the new young Doctors and to their advisors and colleagues.
