AIChE is not over yet!! Mark your 📆 We have put together an exciting lineup of speakers on Thursday, tomorrow morning at 8 am at Hilton Aqua Salon D. @BhamlaLab will be kicking it off with some cool science about entangled blobs of worms. @ChEnected @aiche_mesd

Kumar ATOMIC lab will set it's foundations in Singapore this June and my lab will be recruiting excellent candidates at all levels of their studies. My group has 3 PhD openings and 1 postdoc opening. Please see the attached posting and reach out to me. https://t.co/A9vT8thjhj

To say that I reached here all by myself would underscore the contribution of my mentors, letter writers (Andre Mkhoyan, Michael Tsapatsis, Nicholas Kotov, Sharon Glotzer, Rohit Bhargava),friends (you know who you are)and most importantly my parents (3/n)

I have lived this dream of becoming a Professor for last 14 years, when I was an undergrad and got excited with an electron microscopy course at IIT Madras and followed my passion of imaging atoms @MkhoyanL . (2/n)

I am thrilled to share that I will be joining the Nanyang Technological University @NTUsg School of Materials Science and Engineering as a tenure-track assistant professor this June. The big move across the pond will begin soon. (1/n)

I am excited to present a webinar hosted by JASCO next Tuesday (16th May) about our recent work on 3D metamaterials capable of tunable polarization rotation. @kotov_group @profglotz @GlobalJasco Good vibrations promised 📳 Registration link - https://t.co/nGYSZ1qgDp

We published the experimental realization of these gold tetrahelices and their sensing properties in this @angew_chem article done in collaboration with Shunai Che's group @sjtu1896

This work originated in the summer of 2020 during the height of the pandemic, when we were forced to stick to computer screens. Alex now a graduate student in Notestein lab @nu_chbe took on this beautiful journey with me of creating and simulating gold tetrahelices.

My paper on understanding the role of coupled electromagnetic fields between small chiral molecules and large gold helices in Chiral Sensing 🍥 is out! Grateful for the contributions of my undergrad Alex Simon and postdoc mentor @kotov_group https://t.co/Be2GqnW2zZ

'Nature and photography inspire me to create materials with an eye for atomic scale arrangement' - Prashant Kumar Read the full interview as part of our '35 Voices' Series 👉 https://t.co/Mon4EbRmQc @prashantksk

New from our 35 Voices interview series! Read on to discover new perspectives from our community focusing on creativity, collaboration, and persistence. 👩🏿‍🔬👩🏼‍🔬👨🏽‍🔬 👉 https://t.co/ufT4yqhLL1 @VidaJamali @AngshumanNag4 @GroupHarding @LotschGroup @prashantksk

It was a pleasure to be interviewed by @SaraSkrabalak for this unique initiative by @ChemMater . I share my perspective on navigating academia as an immigrant in the US and as a post-doc during pandemic. @UMichChE @kotov_group @UMengineering https://t.co/akvbzTUWaR

And @Ella_Maru Alex stuck it out with me through the tight deadline to create these beautiful renders of bowties. Thank you to all involved :)

Even I couldn't have explained it as simply as @kmca43 did https://t.co/MgR4E3OlGV

@kotov_group @UMichChE Bart Kahr @nyuchemistry wrote a beautiful piece of commentary on the paper

Happy and relieved to see that my work on fabricating 3D chiral structures with a 'twist', as a post-doc with @kotov_group @UMichChE is finally out for everyone to enjoy. Lucky that the paper made it to the cover. Article is at https://t.co/GLAiSjimEa

Five selfish reasons to work reproducibly: 1. Avoid disaster 2. Easier to write papers 3. Easier to talk to reviewers 4. Continuity of your work/in the lab 5. Reputation Markowetz (2015) https://t.co/ZiRBnSnH0g

Imagine when this door was made, a person had a vision, their vision was crafted by several artists working locally on each section of the door. Like a crystal nucleating locally, and growing to merge into a beautiful morphology. Agra, India (n/n) @incredibleindia @susancain

Walking on this patterned floor in Taj Mahal is a weird experience. You feel a little dizzy, almost as if floating in Infinity. (4/n)

Jali in one of the mosques near Agra that I visited. The lattice is cubic with nodes and edges accentuated with star like patterns. At that time, I was fascinated with zeolites and these patterns reminded me of those porous crystal structures. (3/n)
