Paula Mendes @pmsilvamendes, Professor of Advanced Materials and former postdoc w/@sirfrasersays, shares her journey from a small village in Portugal to the University of Birmingham. Hear more about her exciting work making responsive biomolecular surfaces.https://t.co/5wz017vxi6
HSH Episode 8 – PNNL Staff Scientist Jaehun Chun tells us how he joined the staff at a US National Lab and teaches us about his work on Nanoparticle Superlattices. Subscribe now at: https://t.co/VXL8AipG95
New Episode: DJ, Doug, and Wally talk to William Ducker, ChemE professor at Virginia Tech (@VT_ChE), about his path to Academia and his strategy for creating surfaces that kill COVID-19. Thanks for spending a few very interesting minutes with us, William! https://t.co/nWOdPQmOdf
Talk back to us Mentors and Advisors: Penn State ChemE Professor Christian Pester's advice for new grad students is "don't pick a topic; pick an advisor". What would you tell a new grad student about choosing a research group? https://t.co/zBWxbQ9s4g
Talk back to us, STEM Students and Professionals: Two questions for our followers: 1) What department is/was your undergraduate Major and 2) What is the most important class you took outside your Major department (so far)?
My new article is just published in Colloids and Surface A, regarding how oil removal from the pores can be promoted or retarded. It is free for the next 50 days. Please check out.

KAUST Professor Niveen Khashab @shmslab opens up about her early career change from mixing chemicals to making Smart Hybrid Materials for drug delivery. Link to her paper on MOFs for CRISPR delivery in the show notes. Thanks for joining us Niveen! https://t.co/1LwyeUGmZp
How important is work-life balance? Tommy Knotts remembers a recruiting event at U Wisconsin: “As I was sitting there I was thinking… I liked their attitudes, they were rigorous, I can be an engineer but that is not my life. I can still have other lives.” https://t.co/E2f4FqmaSW
This week, Professor Tommy Knotts shares his story as a first-gen college grad from Pre-Med Chemistry Student to Chemical Engineering Professor who is modelling how tethering proteins to surfaces affects their structure and function. https://t.co/E2f4FqmaSW
A takeaway from our chat with EE Prof Cammy Peterson on helping remove barriers in STEM: If you see something discriminatory, biased, or well-meaning but not quite on mark, speak up. Together we can change the culture faster than 1 person can change the culture.
In this episode, we step out of our comfort zone in Soft Matter to talk with BYU Electrical Engineering Professor Cammy Peterson about dealing with gender bias in #STEM, and her work developing control systems for autonomous aerial vehicles. https://t.co/V523AQ5INo
In an inauguration replete with moving performances, Amanda Gorman's reading of her poem 'The Hill We Climb' stands out in a big way. I highly recommend (re)watching
Last summer, @TreeSoftMatter invited me to share my science story with him + colleagues @wfpaxton@DjseoI in their podcast "How Science Happens". Thanks for a fun conversation!! Listen here: https://t.co/afwim2P5i4 @HappenScience
New episode of How Science Happens with @daniellejmai, Asst. Prof. of ChemE at @Stanford University. Listen in as Professor Mai tells us about how she got started in ChemE and her work studying biomolecular transport. https://t.co/WsWW06hT6r
