Congrats to newly minted “Dr” – Katie Dahlhausen
Congratulations to Katie Dahlhausen (actually, I should write this as “Dr. Katie Dahlhausen”) for finishing her PhD in the Biophysics Graduate Group here at UC Davis. Her thesis was entitled “Koala Poop Smells Good: How I Know This and Ways to Increase the Impact of Research Through Education & Outreach”.
Here are some pics / Tweets from her exit seminar and PhD bell ringing ceremony.
Now up – the @PhDKD doing her exit seminar at @UCDAVIS pic.twitter.com/Qk6d9bWvqO

So to get help with this follow up she helped design and teach a koala poop course at @ucdavis with @VaterAshley and @davidacoil pic.twitter.com/U00SFgwjzj

She then analyzed the Lonepinella genome with help from people like @M_helvetiae pic.twitter.com/8yLAMgnAMq
