The nailing took place in Universitetsbyggnaden i Vasaparken, Universitetsplatsen 1, Göteborg, at 14:00.
In Swedish academia, “nailing” (spikning) is the formal public announcement and publication of a doctoral thesis. It happens weeks before the defence so that the public has time to read the thesis in advance and prepare questions for the defence. In addition to the physical nailing, the thesis is also published electronically (e-spikning) via GUPEA.
Hari Prakash will defend his thesis on the 23rd of March 2026 at 13:00 in PJ Salen lecture hall, Institutionen för fysik, Johanneberg Campus, Göteborg.
