ALD thesis list grows, now 187 - which are missing?

The list of PhD theses on ALD is growing. In the figure you see the current number of theses listed per country. At the moment, the total number is 187. The previous post, Feb 3, listed 159, so the number has been nicely growing.

Although the list is already sizeable, most likely tens of theses are still missing, at least from Germany, Japan, Norway, Poland, Korea, Turkey, and UK, and probably from many other countries. Everyone's help is appreciated for building a list that is as complete as possible. Please check the theses from your country, and if you note that your/you colleague's thesis is missing, please add the info directly in this file (it is a Google docs file called VPHA-thesis-to-be-added, you can find a link to the file through the page http://vph-ald.com/VPHAopenfiles.html). To make it easier to find missing items per country, the current list has been sorted per country and is shown below in a shortened form: year - author - university - city - country. (The below list includes also the "professor's theses", which are not counted in the number of PhD-equivalents.)
