New challenges ahead!
I’m tremendously grateful to everyone (too many to mention) that has supported me along the way.
Looking forward to continuing my work in this fun and inspiring environment!

I am so grateful & excited to receive funding from @SuomenAkatemia for my project ADHERE. It was nice to read reviewers find my proposal outstanding and a game-changer in the field. In the next four years, I will work on soft adhesion, fluid dynamics and interface instabilities!
@Adnane_Osmane Yes, the transitions are hard. And the "I'm just going to multitask teaching-prep with research-thinking and student data-looking" is even harder (and really stupid to even try).
Our latest experiments were a lot of fun to do! We hole punch inexpensive piezos and suspend membranes across the holes. Piezos drive the membranes and a microphone is used to measure their vibrational spectrum. Peaks tell us about film tension/properties. link.aps.org/doi/10.1103/Ph…
