Science twitter seems to move en masse to BlueSky. Lots of 'starter packs' of people to follow which makes it easy. Recommended!

Been OBSESSED with #Taskmaster as of late and so i hunkered down and wrote a big over the top arrangement for its theme (unbearably catchy btw) Alex Horne

So excited to see Hannah Fry on Taskmaster!

I posted some cool stuff over on bluesssssssky

Today’s reason for being late to my lecture: I can’t cross the road opposite uni because there are about two dozen dockless bikes obstructing the dropped kerb. Camden Council what is your process for keeping pavements clear of bikes? And would you agree it isn’t working?

Come work with two great groups across two fun cities!

New #preprint: setting out how superfluorescence of upconversion nanoparticles can be considered a quantum technology. #chemtwitter #physics #optics #arxiv #ucnps #nanotech arxiv.org/abs/2412.12891

My official retirement video for Sixty Symbols (though Brady Haran might tempt me to make some emeritus productions…). youtu.be/axN5sveQ06M

Check out NPMC, a kinetic Monte Carlo package for predicting optical spectra of lanthanide-doped materials like the complex core/shell nanoparticles we synthesize. NPMC is part of RNMC, a kMC implementation for reaction networks reported in JOSS 🧵 doi.org/10.21105/joss.…

We started 2025 in full force w/ a new nature publication on 1/1/25 using photon avalanching nanoparticles to sense pN-nN forces with infrared light! Work done in close collaboration with Bruce Cohen @molecularFndry & Jim Schuck Columbia Quantum Initiative. A🧵. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Measuring forces optically is useful for noninvasive sensing in biological systems and devices, but existing optical force sensors suffer from the limited range of forces they can measure, their tendency to photobleach, and diffraction-limited spatial resolution.

So glad twitter/X has this AI prompt to tell me that wood burns.🙄

Billionaire Elon Musk gave what appeared to be a fascist salute Monday while making a speech at the post-inauguration celebration for President Donald Trump at the Capital One Arena. “Some elections are important, some are not. But this one, this one really mattered and I just
