@SciReports can someone respond to my multiple emails about my manuscript? The unanswered emails and lack of status update have made this a negative experience.

@SciReports - Can someone respond to my multiple emails about my manuscript under review? With no updates and no responses, this has been a negative review experience.

Are you interested in learning about flocking?

Or are you interested in teaching about flocking?

With two #undergraduate #physics students @seattleu, we made a tutorial to teach students how to build the Vicsek Model from scratch. @BiophysicistJ

I am moving to the Physics Department @CalPolyCSM this Fall where the lab will continue to explore active matter and biological materials.

If anyone plans to visit semi-neighboring @KITP_UCSB, let me know and we can get you up north to campus.

Going on a walk with a toddler is like undergoing a 2D random walk.

We always make it home, but some of our trajectories take infinitely long.

The speeds of these waves are non-monotonically set by the 1) spatial asymmetry of the non-reciprocal interaction and 2) the proximity of the system to the critical temperature.

[Pasha Tabatabai @pashatab1]

How do fluctuations propagate in systems with non-reciprocal interactions?

@seattleu cross-institution work with the great @dsseara and a talented HS student (now at @UChicago).

We found/predicted traveling waves of spin states:

Why is this not part of the #APSMarch2023 itinerary? No fictitious bars? #antiRotation

And there’s even a section about silk! Free will is dead.

This was apparently a book from my childhood. #softmatter had its teeth in me early.

Have you ever played with a Mexican jumping bean? Larva in a seed thrash their body to move the 'bean.'

We asked a fundamental question - what kind of motion is generated by the thrashing of this non-traditional organism?

Now out in @PhysRevE

Super happy to have my first senior author paper @seattleu published.

Even happier to showcase quality #undergraduate research.

Devon McKee ('22, Comp. Sci.) led this interdisciplinary work.
