Today, Business Events Perth has announced that Perth has been chosen as host city for the 49th International Conference on Infrared, Millimeter and Terahertz Waves 2024 (IRMMW-THz 2024), the world’s largest gathering on ultra-high frequency electronics and applications.
@DrMikeRug @irmmwthz2020 Organisers need to move the date now! To think anything will be back to normal by September is a dream (unless you are Trump), even November is a stretch. Maybe ok for USA based attendees; internationals may still be struggling, other things to worry about.
@arc_gov_au Understandably, many people's attention has been drawn away from grant applications, a blanket extension of one to two weeks would help a lot, otherwise you could be putting many RO offices under unnecessary strain.
So last night I was thinking of all the wonderful #WomenInSTEM who have inspired me...First @i_morral, Laura Herz from @OxfordPhysics, @prof_annie and Emma from @WarwickTHz, who are all amazing scientists and the best mentors anyone could ask for. I wouldn't be here without you.

For many academic researchers around the world, the holidays and weekends aren't a time to take a break. Has your lab done anything to improve work-life balance? via @nytimes https://t.co/s43UZ436jg
After my CV, personal and institution website, Google Scholar, ResearchGate, Publons, LinkedIn, Orchid, Web of Science, Scopus, Pure, Academia, I can’t wait for the next tool to simplify managing my academic profile
#OnThisDay in 1831, Michael Faraday FRS discovers electromagnetic induction. This research led to the principles that Faraday would use to construct the electric dynamo and allowed James Clerk Maxwell FRS mathematically model them as Faraday’s Law.
THz people - how do you define the THz band, I'm seeing 0.1-30 THz, I think that going too far into the mid-infrared, I prefer 10 THz as the upper limit, thoughts, references? @THzCambridge @DrMikeRug @HungyenL @THzWoman@DrJessBoland@OpticsMan#thz
