I am so proud of Jake Wilding today! I got to be there when he presented his thesis to the board. He did such a great job and it's good to know what has been occupying so much of his time for the last three years :-). I must admit that in retrospect, I feel bad about all the nagging he's gotten and the questions about "WHY RESEARCH IS TAKING SO LONG!" I can honestly say that no matter the future outcome, all the time he has spent on his research has been worth it...
