Congratulations Juan J. de Pablo of The University of Chicago, newly inducted #NASmember! #NAS160 #chemistry

Es increíble que se haya dejado de apoyar la ciencia básica en México. Gracias a la Olimpiada de Física muchos de nosotros nos hemos convertido en científicos #duelesConahcyt_Mex @Conahcyt_Mex

The beginning of a great short scientific event at the Universitat de Barcelona as a member of the #GulliverLab from the ESPCI Paris - PSL Thanks to all the organizers, top level researchers.

Here I am at the Active Matter and Complex Environments Workshop! #amsce23 Thanks to the organizers and thanks to my advisor Juan de Pablo from UChicago Pritzker Molecular Engineering for his support, and to Teresa Lopez-Leon, my advisor at ESPCI Paris - PSL for encouraging me to participate!

📢📢 We can now directly measure the forces exerted by an active nematic by photo-polymerizing elastic inclusions in situ! A great approach to probe #activematter More details here! 📃 arxiv.org/abs/2307.11587 Universitat de Barcelona La UB Divulga SOC&SAM research group

Getting ready for Xmas with a topological active Santa! By Ignasi from SOC&SAM research group

I was invited to share my current research in Ramon's group meeting. Such an honor! People interacted and made questions and very interesting comments! It is always a pleasure 🤗

📢📢 By in-situ photo-polymerizing soft elastic inclusions, we can now directly probe active nematic gels! We measure the forces they exert, characterize their material properties, and more... SOC&SAM research group doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2… #softmatter #activematter

"Dancing colors of liquid crystal lattices" I got an honorable mention in the Science as Art contest from the #UniversityofChicago The University of Chicago ! Look at this chiral liquid crystal colors!

For every amazing Science as Art image there is a compelling story of how the photo was captured. Learn more about the stories and researchers behind this year’s Science as Art competition. Learn more: ms.spr.ly/6012YDqcu

Our most recent contribution came out last week! Thanks to all the coauthors who made a great job putting this piece of research together! This has been an effort between colleagues from The University of Chicago UChicago Pritzker Molecular Engineering University of Chicago Materials Research Center Harvard University Facultad de Ciencias UNAM #liquidcrystals
