Minerals play a key role in #bone strength, sure. Yet, a demineralized bone (video👇) is a self-standing material that behaves as a #soft, #viscoelastic solid, showing the importance of the #organic scaffold for bone #mechanical properties! 🦴Learn more: link.springer.com/article/10.103…

Beautiful work led by Julien Bauland posted on arXiv combining #rheometry with #EIS, #velocimetry & #USAXS experiments to study the anti-#thixotropic dynamics in attractive #colloidal dispersions, right before moving to @JanVermant's group! 👉arxiv.org/abs/2501.16532 #carbonblack

The 2025 Society of Rheology's Annual Meeting will be held in enchanted Santa Fe, NM on October 19-23. Look for our call for abstracts later this spring and save the dates to discuss everything that flows. We hope to see you there! #SoR2025
