Laser light can be used to control the motion of atoms and molecules, allowing us to study exotic molecular interactions and their surrounding quantum environments. Join us with Dr. Valery Milner! @ubcscience @ubcengineering @ubcmsl @triumflab #physics

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a . COMET! Amazing to behold, our current understanding of comet evolution is the Oort cloud, a giant bubble-like shell which surrounds our solar system. Come learn more! @ubcscience @ubc @triumflab #astronomy #physics

Superconductors (materials which allow current to flow through them with 0 resistance and therefore 0 power loss) have been around for more than 100 years. What do layered nickelates have to offer? @ubcscience #triumflab @ubcmsl #physics #superconductors

Gravitational waves, neutron-star smashups - what's not to love about astrophysics? The GW170817 event detection answered many questions but cosmic ripples are still a mystery. Join us with Enrico Ramirez-Ruiz to learn more! @ubcscience @ubc #astronomy

One property of biological processes is its ability to reconfigure and adapt dynamically based on a continuous consumption of matter or energy. How could such properties be infused into next-generation autonomous materials? @ubcscience @ubcengineering

We understand the observed structure of the universe; however, it's main constituents (like inflation, dark matter and dark energy) are still a mystery. What tools do we have to help? @ubcscience @ubcengineering @ubcmsl @triumflab @ubcgradschool #astronomy
