Congratulations Mikael and Johan, PhD!!!
It is fun to see someone in with strong associations to Marratech succeed so well.
As you may know, my colleague and Marratech co-founder Peter Parnes also works with the Media Technology group at the Lulea University of Technology.
Mikael Drugge, PhD. has worked together with Peter Parnes at LTU for many years and is now lending us a strong hand at Marratech. Yesterday, Mikael was awarded his PhD. in front of an international jury. You can read his thesis here.
While I could not attend his presentation, the grapevine says that he showed no signs of being nervous and did a very good presentation. Well done!
And on the subject of PhDs, I forgot to mention that our former colleague, Johan Kristiansson also became Johan Kristiansson, PhD. on November 11th under the guidance of Peter Parnes as well. Congratulations Johan!
You can read Johan's thesis here.
I have had the pleasure to work with Johan and am just getting to know Mikael. They are both focused, down to earth hard working people. The kind of people that deserve the PhD. title, while not letting it get to their heads.
In fact, you could say that of a lot of our research "cousins" that are now PhDs.
Good work Peter!
