Happy to share the viewpoint article on recent work by @jackbinysh@ASouslov @CorentinCoulaisthe about interplay between percolation and oddity in robotic metamaterials!
Thanks @UniofBath ! I had a great time talking about my work on shape-shifting materials https://t.co/p9wj4JQCfH and elastic Leidenfrost physics https://t.co/7Sw4UR0VFr with @ASouslov, and new stuff with @CorentinCoulais at @UvA_Amsterdam
Congratulations Dr Jack Binysh for winning the 2023 Peter Troughton Research Staff Prize!
Jack’s winning research focuses on ‘animate matter’; how science can recreate the responsive properties of living matter in synthetic materials.

Thanks to @jackbinysh and Philippe Trinh for the invite down to @UniofBath to speak in the AIMS seminar series today! P.S. More info re the study group I was plugging at the end can be found here https://t.co/9JuGAnPWnw
The October issue is live! This month we consider citation equity in the physics literature, probe an excitonic insulator state in 2D materials, and put limits on theories of dark energy.

Thanks @NewtonGateway! Had a great time at the Edwards Symposium. The poster is based on this preprint, https://t.co/B5iuLPZQgg, doing Leidenfrost physics with soft elastic objects! Joint work with @swaitukaitis, @ASouslov and James Sprittles @MicroNanoFlows.
We would like to congratulate @jackbinysh who won the Alexei Likhtman Poster Prize at this year's 6th Edwards Symposium – Soft Matter for the 21st Century event, 7th - 9th September. With their poster titled: "Thermodynamic Lubrication in the Elastic Leidenfrost Effect."
Starfish embryos self-assemble into ‘crystals’ exhibiting a curious behaviour that seems to violate Isaac Newton’s laws of classical mechanics. Learn more in this fantastic N&V by @jackbinysh & @ASouslov https://t.co/hwQOBACrtG
A wheel that rolls uphill. A ball that only bounces to one side. A wall that controls where it absorbs energy. With one equation, the physicists Corentin Coulais and Vincenzo Vitelli have developed a host of unorthodox objects from new “odd matter.” https://t.co/yD860kVFcM
The physicists Corentin Coulais and Vincenzo Vitelli have constructed “odd matter” in which component parts interact nonreciprocally. The resulting behaviors could lead to biophysical insights, stronger robots and novel materials. @benbenbrubaker reports: https://t.co/yD860kVFcM
