In this edition of #CondensedMatterPioneers, we would like to highlight the career of Sir Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman (1888-1970), a pioneering physicist and the first Indian to receive a Nobel Prize in Science.🧵

[Prasoon Awasthi @prasoon175]

Looking forward to it!

@JuliaEckert10 Thanks, Julia!

[Prasoon Awasthi @prasoon175]

Excited to share our new arXiv preprint!
“Surface functionalization modulates collective cell behavior at integer topological defects.” Read here: https://t.co/34aOaoSvWb #AcademicChatter (1/3)

[Prasoon Awasthi @prasoon175]

Stronger adhesion also reshapes the group into two +½ defects, revealing how surface chemistry can steer active nematic–like cell organization. Would love to hear thoughts from the community working in this area. #Topologicaldefect #collectivecelldynamics (3/3)

[Prasoon Awasthi @prasoon175]

We show that changing how cells adhere to a surface can redirect their collective motion — from moving inward to circulating around a patterned ring. (2/3)

@FakhriLab @PhysOfLifeLMU @JulienTailleur @jeffchengore @leonidmirny @MIT_Physics Is it possible to have this series in online mode also?

[Dr. Jyotsana Priyadarshani @jyotsana2212]

Do join us at the "Feel the Force" #summerschool at KU Leuven, Belgium. It will be full of super informative and interactive sessions, posters, and hands-on workshops on TFM, FRET, microfluidics, and more!! Early bird registration ends on 29th August 2023!

@honsybee Thank you!

[Prasoon Awasthi @prasoon175]

I am elated to share that I successfully defended my Ph.D. thesis on 25th July 2023. I would like to thank my mentors, colleagues, friends, staff, parents, and brother for being a part of this incredible journey. Ph.D. #PhDone #phdvoice

[Prasoon Awasthi @prasoon175]

@insidecanoehead Thank you!

[Prasoon Awasthi @prasoon175]

It was an amazing experience interacting with great minds and listening to the talks of professors Rob B. Phillips, @ManuPra18599785, Julia Yeomans, David Nelson, David Weitz, @FakhriLab, and Andreas Bausch. @AcademicChatter

[Novo Nordisk Foundation @novonordiskfond]

Niels Bohr, the visionary Danish physicist and Nobel laureate, leaves behind a lasting and profound legacy in physics and science as a whole.

This week, the Novo Nordisk Foundation proudly hosted a conference celebrating the centenaries of the Niels Bohr Institute (founded in 1921) and Niels Bohr’s Nobel Prize in Physics (awarded in 1922).

Titled “Crossing the Disciplinary Boundaries of Physics”, the conference was organised by the Niels Bohr Archive, the Niels Bohr International Academy, and the Niels Bohr Institute.

We were honoured to have His Royal Highness The Crown Prince at our Copenhagen headquarters for the event. Crown Prince Frederik opened a public celebration and attended a lecture by the 2022 Nobel Laureate, Morten Meldal.

@Kumar_Optoman Thank you, Sanjeev!

[Prasoon Awasthi @prasoon175]

Thank you so much Dr. Jyotsana!
It was a great journey collaborating with you.

[Dr. Jyotsana Priyadarshani @jyotsana2212]

Congratulations Dr. Prasoon Awasthi @prasoon175 on your successful defense and a rocking end of the PhD journey..✌️🥳💪🏻

[Prasoon Awasthi @prasoon175]

@diffusiveblob @kurmankaiyrbek @SerraLab_LC Many congratulations to the team!
Great research findings

[Brian Camley @diffusiveblob]

Just out in PNAS: how do fibroblasts respond to topological defects imposed on them? Modeling by @kurmankaiyrbek, great collaboration with @SerraLab_LC + Kirsten Endresen for the experiments! https://t.co/ktvKy3Xywq

[Prasoon Awasthi @prasoon175]

We would also like to express our gratitude to staff members of SRIC @IITKgp for helping in patent filing.

[Prasoon Awasthi @prasoon175]

I am extremely excited to share the following recent research publication along with its granted patent with all of you. This research work is carried out in equal collaboration with @jyotsana2212
