Congratulations to Dr Helen Yates on the successful defence of her PhD thesis today! Dr Yates' work was titled "Staying Alive: Crime, Agency, and Trauma during the Great Irish Famine of 1845-1852" and made use of digitised records of Ireland's judicial and penal systems during this traumatic period of Irish History.
