Happy to be invited as external (online😎) reviewer to the successful PhD thesis defense of Felicitas Loeffler at @fusionUniJena together with my two wonderful colleagues Birgitta Koenig-Ries and Clement Jonquet on "User-Centered Semantic Dataset Search"! Great talk - and really important work!

Three years had passed since I defended my PhD on this day in the earliest days of the COVID-19 pandemic when virtual meetings had just started becoming a norm. An article was later published in the journal Cell iScience highlighting the experiences of a few who went through that journey, including me.

A bit dark but what a beautiful end of the day. Listening to a fascinating story on bacterial conjugation by Laetitia Van Wonterghem during her #phddefense in the @LabMichiels@twitter.com.
