I had an awesome time visiting @3M world of Innovation and presenting my research to a lot of talented folks. Thank you @ashleykaiser15 for the invite and it's been such a pleasure to talk about polymers, sustainability and manufacturing with y'all !
Despite the pandemic, the MIT community has continued teaching, learning, supporting the Institute’s mission, and investigating the world and finding new ways to make it better. To those arriving on campus for the first time, and to those returning: Welcome home.
Graduating engineering PhD student, Ashely Kaiser, worked with MIT's necstlab and NASA to leverage carbon nanotubes in designing stronger, tougher, and lighter materials for future space vehicles and habitats. https://t.co/7IFrMNTmL4 @MITAeroAstro@mit_dmse
Two sheets of graphene stacked atop each other at just the right angle can create an unconventional superconductor. Physicists have now created tunable superconductivity in a twisted graphene “nanosandwich” of three graphene sheets. https://t.co/cifcq48uI3

Our paper is now published in @nanoscale_rsc! This study facilitates scalability in nanomaterial manufacturing by quantifying the impact of processing on nanofiber-substrate adhesion. Thanks to all of our co-authors and @MIT for making this work possible! https://t.co/R3zqC6VhbP
Four astronauts with ties to MIT named to NASA’s Artemis team: Artemis program will focus on returning humans to the moon. Congratulations! 👏🚀🌝https://t.co/TzANp5yGMy
#HappyHalloween! PhD student @ashleykaiser15 grew millions of carbon nanotubes and immersed them in a guiding liquid. Upon drying, the nanotube "forest" created a spooky pattern. 👻 #onlyatMIT https://t.co/zEay42avBS
Sheila Widnall: A lifetime exploring the unknown. During 64 years at MIT, the Institute Professor Emerita has been a trailblazer in aerospace and the U.S. military, and a changemaker for women in STEM. https://t.co/HzmHgJ2rrk
