On Monday, 11 November 2024, a festive atmosphere filled the Institute of Plant Science and Microbiology (IPM) at the University of Hamburg. Monica Wilson had just successfully defended her PhD thesis 'Rhizosphere processes in Wetlands' in the Institute's lecture hall. To celebrate her achievement, colleagues from the RTG 2530 and friends presented her with a lovingly crafted doctoral hat.

What a lovely gift table: The stunning cake is almost too beautiful to cut, and the creatively designed doctoral hat is filled with personal dedications to Monica Wilson. One detail that stands out is the empty energy drink can - a funny nod to the final sprint of her PhD journey. Photo: UHH/RTG2530/Grebe

A successful surprise: Monica Wilson is delighted with the bag designed for her. Photo: UHH/RTG2530/Grebe
