In each place I gave a tutorial and a technical talk, mostly an hour each session, with audiences in the range 50-100 in each case. The trip was phenomenal. I am a bit at a loss to communicate just how warmly the outreach was received. Science is truly the common language.

Bacteria can propel themselves like a corkscrew by wrapping their flagella around their body. How do they do it? A new study in Physical Review E suggests they take advantage of motor-induced buckling instability to perform this method of locomotion.

Experiments and simulations explore the flow and interface dynamics near a moving contact line at obtuse angles, revealing a sharp flow deceleration along the interface, offering insight into the classical moving contact line singularity.

How do particles at fluid interfaces affect mass transfer?
Our new Fick–Jacobs diffusion model shows hindrance happens only at short times.
Excited this is now in Phys Rev Fluids!
