Online Thesis Defense of Hui Ying Yeoh

Congratulations to the new doctor!

Dr. Yeoh

On April 8th Ying Yeoh defended her thesis entitled “Folding of the CFTR Transmembrane domains in the ER”. Due to the COVID-pandemic, Ying had an exclusive as the first CPC PhD to defend completely online! The entire committee all called in from their homes, as well as the defendant and her two paranymphs. Only the beadle and the IT-technician were in the Akademie-gebouw of Utrecht University. Thankfully there were no major issues with the software and connections and the defense went without a hitch!
