Georgia Tech put together a great report on the college of science's accomplishments over the previous academic year. I'm proud our work appears in a number of places throughout. cos.gatech.edu/system/files/2…

We have been sitting on a very special video debut premiering next Monday as we begin to reflect on our achievements of 2022! Join Daniel S. Sussman and Sci4Ga's Director of Advocacy, Michael Czajkowski, as they guide us through a journey of discovery on the mystery of ice cream!

Beautiful microscopic pictures. Glad this fierce-looking ant doesn't know what we do to ants in the name of research.

The Paulsen group’s recent work was written up in @QuantaMagazine. This work compares a new theory by Ian Tobasco (UIC) with experiments by Yousra Timounay and Graham Leggat (Paulsen Lab) and simulations by Eleni Katifori and Desislava Todorova (UPenn). quantamagazine.org/the-new-math-o…

@ZRocklin There seriously is an hbar index. It is not h/(2 pi) !
Mittelberg, Austria 🇦🇹 English
Even more impressive because this is quantum work, so if his h is 29, his hbar is less than 5.
Michael Sentef@sentefmi
Just a quick reminder that you can win a Nobel with an h-index = 29 (according to the usually inflated google scholar). Quantitative measures of scientific output are not the way to go to a bright future for humanity.

@aliceschwarze It’s only wrong if the title isn’t actually funny. That’s what peer review is for

Pretty stoked about the Svante Paabo Nobel. His team's work has led to many jaw dropping reads for me over the years, bringing us that much closer to ancient humanity.
Also, very cool to see evolutionary biologists getting recognized by the committee!

BREAKING NEWS: The 2022 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Svante Pääbo “for his discoveries concerning the genomes of extinct hominins and human evolution.”

does anybody actually want '(C)' to become the copyright symbol when typed??? what was the composition of the focus group that led to this madness?
