Check out the Chronicle's interview with Emory Physics Prof. @ErinBonning! @EmoryUniversity @emorycollege During a campus crisis, Dr. Bonning asks “What should I be requiring of students in the midst of all this turmoil?” How to Grade During a Crisis chronicle.com/article/how-to…

Join us for the colloquium on Monday from 4-5pm in Riddick 301! Dr. Shashank Shekhar (@sshekhr) from Emory University (@Emory_Physics) will discuss "Self-assembly Across Scales: From Cytoskeletal Dynamics to Evolution of Multicellularity"! | More info: physics.sciences.ncsu.edu/event/physics-…

Our own @burtonlab from @Emory_Physics recently talked giant soap bubbles (and the science involved) BBC Radio 4's Curious Cases podcast. Listen in at bbc.in/3Yn18SF and read more at bit.ly/3YrIOIo

BREAKING NEWS The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2024 #NobelPrize in Physics to John J. Hopfield and Geoffrey E. Hinton “for foundational discoveries and inventions that enable machine learning with artificial neural networks.”

📢New paper out in @PRX_Life !! Excited to announce our new story where we implemented a theory-experiment dialog with my fantastic grad student @a_ankita1, and my friend and theory collaborator @Sandeep_IMSc! doi.org/10.1103/PRXLif…

Score!!🎉 Ankita's paper accepted in PRX Life! @PRX_Life With @Sandeep_IMSc, we combined theory & experiments to uncover multicomponent dynamics of 3 depolymerases that compete & collaborate on actin filament ends! @a_ankita1 @EmoryUniversity @emorycollege @Emory_Physics

Entering a new field is always fun, and a bit scary. Here we predict that there’s an unknown phenotypic state of beta cells responsible for a subtype of type 2 diabetes. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We host more than just the @ATLSciFest! Head over to ScienceATL.org/events to find out what science events we have coming up!

Way to go Ankita!

Our latest article on nonlinear PL from gold. By squeezing light into nanometric gaps we create "large momentum photons" and excite highly non-thermal, non-Fermi carrier distributions. @emorycollege @EmoryUniversity @Emory_Physics nature.com/articles/s4146…

The @Emory_Physics major offers students the opportunity to study the physical world, from subatomic particles to the cosmos. This year, the department produced 10 Honors Graduates, including with the physics and astronomy major
