Also today, Michelle's last PhD paper is out in The Journal of Chemical Physics with Amr and @TomPFay, where she has extended the notion of the committor to quantum coherent dynamics doi.org/10.1063/5.0213…

If you are interested in the interplay of information, thermodynamics and fluctuations check out Songela's @songelachem first group paper, in which she shows how to control your autonomous clock or preserve your memory arxiv.org/pdf/2211.00670 College of Chemistry Kavli Energy NanoScience Institute (ENSI)

I'm excited to share that my article, 'Mystery Droplets Inside Cells May Play Vital Roles in Life,' has been published in Scientific American. In this piece, I discuss the physics of biomolecular condensates and reflect on my personal journey in the field. scientificamerican.com/article/myster…

If you are at #ACSFall2024 today, make sure to catch Rohit's talk on 2d exciton polarons in lead-halide perovskites

Kritanjan's latest takes a fresh look at an old problem: the molecular origin of the super-Maxwellian velocity distribution of evaporating helium from water, finding that it is due to an anomalously small friction at the air-water interface arxiv.org/abs/2408.10345 College of Chemistry

check out Amr's Amr Dodin most recent collaboration with the Saykally group in which he explore how cations--like guanidinium-- can be selectively adsorbed to the air-water interface College of Chemistry arxiv.org/abs/2408.15423
