received the official notice that I was promoted to Professor effective July 1st, 2021. Thanks to the many people in my life, my parents of course but also many teachers from elementary school onward, the many collaborators during my academic career, and the many friends that enabled me to be who and what I am, which made this promotion possible And of course a thank you to my student researcher group, the WolbPack, which has been an inspiration to me since the group started. Cheers Gregor
