CONGRATULATIONS to Flinders Uni Palaeo group student Petar Tomic who gave his final Honours seminar and viva online today! In his thesis Petar described a new placoderm (early jawed vertebrate) from the Devonian Gogo Formation in northern Western Australia.
Petar had to give an online seminar which must have been difficult, but he put in a lot of work to his thesis and should be proud of what he’s achieved. (And I’m looking forward to seeing his thesis turn into a published paper soon).
I hope you celebrate well tonight, Petar, the Honours experience is intense at the best of times, let alone during a global pandemic!
