On Monday 27th January 2025, our PhD student Daniel Staško successfully defended his doctoral thesis, completing his study cascade at our department and faculty. His research path began in 2017 within the student faculty project “Callibration of new transmitting medium for high pressure experiments“. This project was followed by his bachelor thesis "Compressibility of an intermetallic compound" and his master work "Pressure effects on physical properties of a selected Ce-based compound". In 2020, Daniel, together with his supervisor Milan Klicpera, delved into the study of frustrated pyrochlore oxides. This research culminated in the successful defence of his doctoral thesis "Crystallographic and electronic properties of rare-earth A2B2O7 oxides under extreme conditions".
Over the years, Daniel proved himself to be a valuable and dependable colleague, whose presence will be missed.
Congratulations on your successful defense, Daniel! We wish you great success in your future work!
