One of this year's igNobels went to the discovery that some mammals can breathe through their anuses.

I've been to plenty of faculty meetings with mammals that speak through their anuses. None those cases showed evidence of stopping to breathe.

@APSphysics Division of Particles and Fields advisors of recent theory PhDs: nominate your students to the J. J. and Noriko Sakurai Dissertation Award in Theoretical Particle Physics. Nominations due September 2.

@nicoleperlroth @BloomsburyPub @ByDavidFrance @MacmillanUSA ... well, for about two years since your book, everyone close to me probably quietly blamed you for monopolizing seemingly every conversation I was having at the time. 😅

Ahead of Saturday's Indie @BookstoreDay celebration, I want to thank @cellardoor_12 for hosting our Phy-Sci book club for the 8th year running! Here's the 2024 line up.

[Flip Tanedo @FlipTanedo]

And our 2022 line up. The book of the year was a tie between @nicoleperlroth's This Is How They Tell Me The World Ends (@BloomsburyPub) and @ByDavidFrance's How To Survive a Plague (@MacmillanUSA).

[Flip Tanedo @FlipTanedo]

Here was our 2023 line up. Our book of the year selection was @RKassinger's Slime, published by @HarperCollins.

Congrats to @hannkeziah, @CelineCalpo, and Ananya
Agustin Malhotra, Filipina members of the 2024 @PDSoros fellowship class! Welcome to the fam.

"First class of Fellows to include 3 Filipino Fellows, bringing the total number of Filipino Fellows to 10."

One of my favorite publications, the American @JournalPhysics, has an open access resource letter on dark matter. It's a great place to get started when looking to navigate the review literature in the field.

@humblerock @Perimeter I think that event is in a couple of weeks, or else I also missed it. Do get well soon and perhaps we'll see each other there.

[PollicaPhysics @PollicaPhysics]

We are excited that the Pollica Physics Centre in collaboration with the Galileo Galilei Institute in Florence has been awarded the prestigious Simons Foundation Targeted Grant to Institutes!

The @nytimes highlights @CERN as one of the "52 places to go in 2024."

A 1.5 years later: Delighted to be back at @KITP_UCSB for a follow-on program to continue collaborations initiated at Neutrinos '22!

It's been rainy outside, but the staff and the physicists are just as warm and lovely as they always are. Feels like being #HomeForTheHolidays.

[Flip Tanedo @FlipTanedo]

I'm still riding the wave of new research ideas from the @KITP_UCSB Neutrinos '22 workshop. I was a bit of an outsider, and as a result came to appreciate several "new to me" ideas that I look forward to adapting to ongoing collaborative work.

#UCSBGiveDay (Apr 7) is a good time to reflect on the excellent visit and the impact of the @KITP_UCSB on the physics community and the broader society around it.

[Princeton University Press @PrincetonUPress]

On #WorldPhilosophyDay, read the free introduction to @myishacherry‘s Failures of Forgiveness, which promises to transform how we deal with wrongdoing in our lives, opening a new path to true healing and reconciliation.

@DanielWhiteson Weren't there a bunch of naive particle theorists ahead of the LHC who treated collider physics the same way?

"I don't know anything about detectors, but just give us access to the raw data and we'll figure it out... it's just four-vectors, right?"

Many thanks to graphic designer Rachel Darmody for sharing this graphic based on a line in my interview with @Ologies earlier this year! I've been re-using this phrase in my colloquia and now have an image for it.

@MBKplus At least the logos are really spiffy. 😁

[Flip Tanedo @FlipTanedo]

Candidates may be re-nominated in the year following their original nomination. Nomination packages include the PhD thesis + up to 4 publications, a popular-level summary of their work, a CV, an advisor letter + 2 supporting letters.

[Flip Tanedo @FlipTanedo]

The deadline for the @APSphysics J. J. and Noriko Sakurai Dissertation Award in Theoretical Particle Physics has been extended to October 17. Please consider nominating your theory PhD students who defended between Sept. 1, 2022 and Aug. 31, 2023.
