All the congratulations to @emmaemcbride on your #UKRIFLF!! So well deserved, and wishing you all the best on your next step! Anyone who is interested in understanding extreme states of matter should definitely check out what you're doing!

I am looking for young scientists active in #plasmonics and #nanooptics who are not Caucasian and possibly not male to serve as new subcommittee members at CLEO 2023. We reached a 50/50 male/female balance last year, but now we want to be more inclusive! Please help, RT, DM me.

💎🌧️ At #LCLS, a team led by HZDR @[email protected], the University of Rostock and École polytechnique mimicked the extreme temperatures and pressures found deep inside ice giant planets to find that “diamond rain" could be more common than previously thought. stanford.io/3BbypoA

One of our greatest mistakes is imposing our suffering on the next generation. The fact that you endured unreasonable demands and unclear expectations doesn't mean others should. The responsibility of leaders is not to repeat the errors of the past. It's to improve the future.

It is with utmost sorrow and heavy hearts to announce the passing of our President and Co-Founder of BlackinChem, Samantha “Sammy” Mensah. She was a phenomenal activist, leader, inventor, science communicator. and a doctoral candidate in chemistry at UCLA. (1/3)

⚡️ An experiment conducted at #LCLS illuminated the strange behavior of gold when zapped with high-energy laser pulses. The research could improve our understanding of how metals behave under extreme conditions and lead to more resilient materials: stanford.io/42F1qVI

I got to work with some really awesome people! And now our work is out! We show a recently developed method to measure how electrically conductive materials are when they're heated to >5000 K, or subjected to almost 1 million atmospheres of pressure! doi.org/10.1063/5.0193…
