On 18 December, Philip Ferguson, who was co-supervised by James Mason (KCL, Institute of Pharmaceutical Science), was examined by Jason Crain (IBM Research, UK) and Jake Bundy (Imperial College London) during his PhD viva. Phil’s viva lasted most of the afternoon, and in the end the examiners were left impressed by Phil’s work and his defence of it. They have requested minor corrections, which Phil will complete in the next month or two. In the meantime, Phil is finishing up a few remaining things from his thesis and is interviewing for postdocs.
