#ProTip for postdocs, postdoc candidates, and beyond: Try not to request reference letters from your undergrad days. Your jobs/fellowships will hope you have grown a lot during grad school. 1 letter from an outside expert in your grad field is better than an undergrad advisor.

Scientists have discovered a new process that breaks down plastics into reusable chemicals, bringing us closer to a circular economy. This could mean less waste and more sustainable reuse of plastics! ♻️ @molecularfndry @UCBerkeley #PollutionSolution

The catalytic process, discovered by researchers at Berkeley Lab and UC Berkeley, efficiently reduces polymers to chemical precursors — possibly bringing a circular economy for plastics one step...
