We follow events in the life of the MIT Physics Junior Lab, as well as our students, our alumni, and developments in the world of physics and physics education.
Our second Fall 2023 Physics Trends Flyer shows starting salary ranges for new physics bachelors from the classes of 2021 and 2022. Download a copy and find other Trends Flyers here: https://t.co/RZ8uHRMpsr
And that’s a wrap! Such a pleasure to teach 8.14 Experimental Physics, @MITJLab@MIT_Physics. We had a broad range of final projects from radio telescope to cold atom trapping, P-symmetry violation & NMR QIP.
The poster prize is a copy of @20tauri book, The Carbon Queen.
In which I get on my soapbox about liberal arts education which is fundamentally an attitude about learning, and NOT a collection of particular disciplines or institutions: https://t.co/EsiwkV6Uem

Congrats to Junior Lab’s very own @FakhriLab and @spatrick99 who both received their awards at a ceremony last night at the annual #APSMarch Meeting.
Truly an honor to be the recipient of @ApsDsoft Early Career Award this year.
And thanks to @CorentinCoulais, @karenedaniels & co-organizers for an exciting session on emergent mechanics of active, robotic & living materials. #apsmarch
At our house we’re currently deep into #Lego builds for pandemic vacation entertainment. We just got to the working-mechanism step of the Lego typewriter. YOU GUYS.
This is very special. All the past recipients of the @APSphysics Reichert Award (as well as the Reicherts themselves) are all professional heroes of mine. Being officially counted among them is such an honor. (I have in fact daydreamed about this before.) https://t.co/Y3CReVb8Dl
