Wellesley College

Congratulations to 2026 #CottrellScholar Award recipient Erin Teich @Wellesley for “Prediction and Control of Mechanical Response in Deformable Jammed Solids.”

Thank you @Wellesley College community and Zimbabwean friends from near and far. It was packed and standing room ONLY. Thank you for reading my work. Democracy dies when citizens stop participating. Never give up on democracy …

Woke up early to sign a few books! Book Launch Day at @Wellesley College Forgive the excessive posting that’s about to happen! The joy! The Joy! The Joy! (My sister insisted I sign books before going to the gym).

I took my @Wellesley students on a chocolate tour in Cambridge for our second to last class of the semester. It was delightful. We learned about the history of Cambridge, Harvard square, chocolate, ice cream, gelato & cold chocolate. We had fun and I will miss this class a lot.

Media Lab Prof. @deblinasarkar59 led a team of researchers from @MIT, @wellesley, and @harvard to develop tiny nanoelectronic devices, a billion times smaller than a grain of rice, that autonomously recognize and target diseased regions in the brain, and self-implant to provide precise brain stimulation. The technology, which they call “circulatronics,” holds the potential to make therapeutic brain implants accessible to all by eliminating the need for surgery. Their work is published in @NatureBiotech. news.mit.edu/2025/new-thera…

Our @Wellesley week of chocolate concluded with the celebration of our new cacao tree. @nytimes headline is gloomy but not untrue. I am working on verifying the numbers but we think one harvest from a grown tree only produces enough cacao for 4 bars of chocolate. Spooky.

Not surprised to see the outcomes of this study! So proud of all my Wellesley sisters and the many ways they have made the world a better place. #TheWellesleyEffect @Wellesley - New research demonstrates outsized impact of a Wellesley… wellesley.edu/news/new-resea…

Wellesley College, my alma mater, celebrated its sesquicentennial. Pauline and Henry Fowle Durant founded the college in 1870. 150 years since Wellesley College opened its doors to 314 students, it has educated many women who have made a difference in the world. @Wellesley

Financial aid is a large part of the admissions process, but does it play a part in the admissions decision? 🙌 Thank you, Peaches Valdes, dean of admission and financial aid at @wellesley for this information! ow.ly/5OQF50T8NYg

Yesterday was very special! A room full of incredible writers gathered for the #massbookaward. I'm honored that "We Refuse" won for the best nonfiction book. I love living in MA, it gets a lot of things right and I put literature on that list. @MassBook @SealPress @Wellesley

On October 15, 2025, Wellesley College will host “The Democracy Code: Quantitative Research for Political Reform,” a dinner and panel discussion. We are looking forward to the panel discussion as well as the Social Choice conference that will follow! mathematics-democracy-institute.org/the-democracy-…

Since Hershey is trending …time to highlight my summer work with my incredible @Wellesley students. We’ve been studying risk in the chocolate industry. So, why is the world running out of chocolate? Cacao $ is going up, why? Climate change. Africa produces over 80% of cacao.
