Onward and forward: Pedram graduates with M.S.!
While we are sad to see Pedram leave the group, we understand the difficulty the situation has put the entire group in. We wish him all the best as he pursues his Ph.D. at PennState now and hope to continue to collaborate for many years to come! Great work on modeling the ground breaking high pressure spatial CVD (HPS-CVD) system.

Bullseye
In the latest Pimputkar vs. Strandwitz rivalry, this time we clashed over precision in hitting a target. Bow and arrow to be precise. To the surprise of everyone, (him included) Siddha hit the bullseye twice in a row taking the clear lead! Now let’s see if this translates into hitting the target for getting the lab construction complete …
