It was a pleasure to contribute to this Be Giant @begiantca story on the Canadian Digital Core Library!

There is significant opportunity in bringing modern data collection and analytical methods to drill core logging, and I'm very happy to see Canada investing in this space.

[Be Giant @begiantca]

Locked away in repositories scattered across Canada are millions of metres of drill core that have quietly been gathering dust. Much of it has never been digitized or catalogued in a single place. @creativedlab https://t.co/YN5ZeuYl5M

[Canadian Geotechnical Journal @CanGeotechJ]

#Geotechnical numerical software programs that discretely simulate discontinuities rely on direct shear laboratory tests to provide the properties needed as inputs to these tools. Check out these valuable direct shear laboratory test results for granite!

@David_S_McLagan @QUartsci @QueensENVS @QueensGeology Congratulations!! Welcome to Queen’s and I’m looking forward to working with you!

[Jennifer Day @Dr_JennDay]

It's finally happening!! Thanks to all the invited speakers and sponsors for their ongoing commitment and support since 2020! See you in August! #rockmechanics #rockengineering #carmarocks #rockeng22

[RockEng22 Symposium @RockEng22]

The long-awaited RockEng22 Symposium, the 22nd Canadian Rock Mechanics Symposium, is going ahead in-person this August 8-10, 2022 at The Isabel Bader Centre for the Performing Arts, Queen's University, in Kingston, Ontario! Full details on our website: https://t.co/QYNJeriu4T

@KDeluzio @QueensEngineer @queensu It was a fabulous evening!!

[Jennifer Day @Dr_JennDay]

@NancyRuizU @PhDVoice @AcademicChatter Luck, in the right place at the right time, & good fit. Finishing my PhD thesis while teaching my first term was not a walk in the park, but I somehow managed (many late nights)! I don’t necessarily recommend it, but if the right opportunity comes along it may be worth it!

[Jennifer Day @Dr_JennDay]

@Dr_ESteel @Arijitc1980 Congrats!

[Jennifer Day @Dr_JennDay]

@KDeluzio Congratulations Kevin!

[Jennifer Day @Dr_JennDay]

Thrilled to share our brand new (and first) website for the Queen's Geomechanics and Geohazards group!

This project has been under development for nearly 2 years(!) and I am extremely proud of this new platform to share our research & student successes!

[Jennifer Day @Dr_JennDay]

@FSSprops @queensu Congratulations Charlotte! Looking forward to seeing you at Queen’s!

[Jennifer Day @Dr_JennDay]

So true!

[Jen Heemstra @jenheemstra]

If you are hesitating to send an email to one of your former mentors to let them know about something good in your life because you think they already get too much email, send it!

Getting these emails and being able to celebrate with someone is often the best part of the day.❤️

[Jennifer Day @Dr_JennDay]

An insightful blog post for both authors & reviewers in research!

[Michael Black @Michael_J_Black]

I get a lot of reviews that say my work is not novel and I bet I'm not alone. It's always frustrating because I see novelty where the reviewer doesn't. Rather than rebut every critique, I've written a blog post to help reviewers think about novelty. https://t.co/UXLabOkYcn

Get involved with E4E! Engineering for Everyone is the Queen's Engineering platform that outlines our plans to advance EDI in the Faculty. We've extended our conversation platform, ThoughtExchange, into the new year to keep gathering ideas: learn more at https://t.co/Sdtmrbycj7.
