Theses in PPC

Graduate students and their theses are the pillars on which the research in the PPC is built on and they offer a close reflection of the work done in the group overall. There are certainly a number of topics that are not covered in a thesis but the most important ones can be found here.

Theses in the PPC since 2004, if you zoom in there are more from earlier on in the shelve.
