A thesis should have a thesis
Yes. I heard a humanities scholar speak about this today. Indeed, according to Wikipedia, "the word "thesis" comes from the Greek θέσις, meaning "position", and refers to an intellectual proposition."
So, what is the main thesis of your Ph.D? Are you ready to defend this thesis?
I have fun at work trying to use quantum many-body theory to understand electronic properties of complex materials.
I am married to the lovely Robin and have two adult children and a dog, Priya (in the photo). I also write an even more personal blog Soli Deo Gloria [thoughts on theology, science, and culture]
