I am a polymer chemist studying the equilibration kinetics of block copolymer micelles in ionic liquids. I study this by shooting light or X-rays at my polymers to see structural changes over time!

@KCGOrtiz GO KACEY!!! So happy for you!

[Julia Early @julia_early]

@SmilesnVials I like to call that a Texas errand.

[Julia Early @julia_early]

Very excited to share our recent work on the molecular weight dependence of micelle fragmentation kinetics! This was a really fun collaborative effort with @BrookhavenLab staff at the NSLS II. Check it out if you like micelles! https://t.co/foLh2QGhpD

Grateful it’s a guilty verdict. Very grateful.

But look all that it took to get the bare minimum. A rightfully guilty charge for a murderer.

Let’s be glad but before we get carried away, note that we are still dealing with disgustingly corrupted systems.

@slabbxo My first/only encounter was using Ta hex rings for high temp. electron microscopy to secure samples to the holder. A niche application, but I was also like... “what is Ta?” the first time I encountered these in grad school. You’re not alone!

Microscopy Twitter! I am chairing the GRS at the 2022 Liquid Phase EM @GordonConf. We are looking for grad students and postdocs that are working in the field to present their latest work here! Please visit our website or contact me for more info. https://t.co/UjBUuIQ0CM

@ChienHuaTu1 @APS_DPOLY Thanks Chien-Hua! Same to you. Excellent talk!

I am so grateful to be honored among so many excellent students in the Padden symposium this year! Thanks to the education committee, participants, attendees, and of course, #TimLodge and the group!

[APS DPOLY @APS_DPOLY]

Congratulations to our 2021 Padden award winner @julia_early. And congrats to all the finalists for making the Padden symposium an amazing experience this year.

My new first first author publication mug! Thanks @julia_early for an awesome birthday present 💝 #polymer #published https://t.co/HAml0Bbkr8

@Vivek5_S It was mainly that the lines did not like to line up properly with the edges of the circle to form a nice mesh. Specifically when you change the perspective. But @SmilesnVials had a good solution!

[Julia Early @julia_early]

Is it actually possible to draw a perfect TEM grid in PowerPoint? Asking for a friend who is definitely not me....

[Julia Early @julia_early]

@SmilesnVials Well.... you’ve changed my life. Thank you.

[PhD Student & Postdoc Symposium in Polymer Science @YoungMacroTalks]

Next week we will dive deep into block copolymer micelle dynamics with @julia_early by directly observing PB-PEO micelle fragmentation during annealing with liquid-phase TEM! You can read all about the study in her recent publication in @ACSMacroLett: https://t.co/avPQp6IfEI

[Julia Early @julia_early]

@Vivek5_S Registration and the speaker list can be found here! https://t.co/CPDoTtBhEs

[Julia Early @julia_early]

Excited to share some of my recent work on liquid-phase TEM and block copolymer micelle dynamics. Registration is free!

[PhD Student & Postdoc Symposium in Polymer Science @YoungMacroTalks]

Many thanks to Marcus Reis (@LeibfarthGroup) and Fabian Pooch for two excellent talks today! Next week we have @julia_early and Friederike Richter presenting their research. Make sure you've registered so you don't miss out!

@c_seitzinger Thanks for the shoutout!! ❤️

Update: It has been revealed that Officer Jacob Pederson of the St.Paul Police Department was the culprit responsible for kick starting the riot in South Minneapolis. He was captured on camera and identified by his Ex-wife.

@HaoSun01977255 Thanks Hao!

[Julia Early @julia_early]

Excited to have done something productive during quarantine. Check out our recent paper on using high-temperature liquid-phase TEM to see block copolymer micelle equilibration in ionic liquids. https://t.co/Q0ruDtjGnR
