Linking @RMIT students/graduates with opportunities and trends in the world of physics.

With volunteer firefighting crews, stretched to their limits, calling for equipment and supplies, It's no wonder GoFundMe fundraisers specifically highlighting climate change have increased by more than 65% in 2019.

Skills that need to be taught in undergraduate physics curricula:
- how to use git
- proper code documentation
- good mathematical writing for psets and papers
- LaTeX
- a computer algebra system (e.g. Mathematica)

we can skip the 300th Ylm(θ,φ) problem to make room for these..

Such a great article! Mandatory reading.

We are sick and tired of dodgy 'scientific' studies and bad reporting of them.

Just because something is common among coffee drinkers, doesn’t mean coffee caused it!

So we put together a five-point checklist to ensure the study you're reading is legit: https://t.co/WuS40lp3qD
