On January 20th, Redlef Braamhaar defended his MSc thesis titled Polarization pulling in a stimulated Brillouin scattering based microwave photonic filter under the supervision of Yvan and Steven.

After the defense Redlef received a bottle of Whiskey as a gift, which he emptied just an hour later at the celebration party. Congrats Redlef, hope you are not too drunk!
