Caught in a tense moment as a ceiling starts to sag, with a flatmate warning of collapse! Dr. Peter Mekhail faces a race against time. Can he get to the ARC for a new card before it's too late? https://t.co/76qNVTJxKs #DrPeterMekhail#TenseMoment
Entanglement means two particles share a destiny. Measuring one instantly reveals the correlated state of the other. Their fates are perfectly linked, a profound connection. #QuantumPhysics#ScienceExplained
Welcome to The Science Show with Dr. Dada on Jambo Radio Scotland, broadcasting from Glasgow! Tune in for exciting science discoveries. #ScienceShow#DrDada#Glasgow
Could the universe be a network evolving by simple rules? This model suggests space and particles emerge from underlying network properties, not from something else running it. #DigitalPhysics#Cosmology
Dr. Peter Mikhail discusses MicroEndo's groundbreaking technology, inspired by the thickness of a human hair. This innovation, developed with STL Tech and the UK Quantum Technology Research Hub, promises to revolutionize sensing and imaging. #MicroEndo#QuantumTech#MedTech
Light traveling through multimode fiber gets scrambled. Holography maps both amplitude and phase to shape light, ensuring a clear image at the other end by scanning reflections. #Tech#Holography
Spaces like the Advanced Research Center were created to foster interdisciplinary research. This building, organized around evolving themes rather than a single school, facilitates dynamic, cross-disciplinary collaboration. #Research#Innovation
The universe's mystery: dark matter. It's key to explaining galaxy movements, yet its true nature and location remain unknown. A cosmic enigma. #DarkMatter#Astrophysics
Prof. Robert Thompson explains how we detect exoplanets! Planets and stars orbit a common center of mass. By measuring the star's wobble via Doppler shift, we can infer the planet's mass. It's like hearing an ambulance change pitch, but in starlight! #Astronomy#Exoplanets
In classical physics, black holes are truly black, trapping even light. But quantum mechanics suggests otherwise, allowing gravitons and photons to escape, making them not entirely black. For large black holes, these quantum effects are minuscule. #BlackHoles#QuantumPhysics
Prof. Deepak Kar explains that the matter we see is only 5% of the universe. Dark energy accounts for 68%, and dark matter for 25%. We truly understand a tiny fraction of what's out there. #SpaceFacts#Cosmology
Dr. Priscilla Ngotho explains a paradox: successful vaccines can lead to complacency. When diseases are nearly eradicated, people forget the threat and skip vaccinations, allowing the disease to re-emerge. #PublicHealth#Vaccines
Wearable tech like Fitbits and Apple Watches use flashing green lights to measure blood flow in your wrist. This light-based technology is a simple example of how medical applications are increasingly moving towards light-based sensors. #WearableTech#HealthTech
An interest in visualizing electromagnetic waves sparked a PhD in electromagnetics. From mobile signals to Wi-Fi, these waves are everywhere and deeply applicable to life. It's a discipline that easily lends itself to impact. #Electromagnetics#STEM#Engineering
Black holes aren't truly black. The image we see is the glowing matter *around* them, accelerated by intense gravity. This gives us a visual of their environment, not the hole itself. #SpaceFacts#Astrophysics
The journey of women in STEM is filled with challenges. Dr. Priscilla Ngotho's story from Kenya highlights the persistent pursuit of impactful scientific discovery despite these hurdles. #WomenInSTEM#Science#Inspiration
Long-haul telecommunications rely on amplifiers to boost light signals through optical fibers. My PhD focused on developing integrated waveguide versions of these amplifiers, moving beyond traditional fiber technology. #Telecommunications#Optics#PhD
Developing tiny, micron- and even nano-scaled fiber optic sensors that change fluorescence based on local pH (acidity/alkalinity). #FiberOptics#Sensors#Tech
This was recorded years ago⦠but it sounds like it was made for right now.
On The Science Show with Dr. Dada, Professor Antonia Ho explained what COVID-19 taught us about viruses, outbreaks, public health, and preparedness. #Virology#PublicHealth#ScienceTok
Professor Antonia Ho, the 2026 Fleming Prize Winner, explains on The Science Show with Dr Dada how the Wuhan pneumonia cluster, identified Dec 31, 2019, raised alarms because patients tested negative for usual illnesses. #Science#PublicHealth#Innovation
