The UCSC Graduate Division approved Yang Xiang’s PhD Dissertation today!! He is now no longer merely Mr. Xiang, but is now the esteemed Dr. Xiang!  In other great news, the aforementioned esteemed Dr. Xiang was recently selected as one of the 2021 CICOES Postdoctoral Fellows, and will be going off to the University of Washington in October 2021 to start a postdoc with Paul Quay, Rolf Sonnerup, and Andrea Fassbender.  Double yay for Dr. Xiang!!
