Richly deserved. Along similar lines, who would @romanmars.bsky.social put on the Mount Rushmore of podcasting?

With talented counterfeiters at the top of their game, how on earth do you spot a fake? And does it really matter anyway?

New paper, with colleagues in Adelaide and Nottingham: doi.org/10.1088/2515...

The developmental potential of a mammalian oocyte can be inferred from the motion of a particle optically trapped in the extracellular matrix!

This has important potential implications for fertility research.

New impact projects at @uofglasgow.bsky.social,
@unistrathclyde.bsky.social, @heriotwattuni.bsky.social and @uniofstandrews.bsky.social will benefit from new funding from the Photonics and Quantum Accelerator.

Here we go! I'm advertising two PhD projects in the School of Physics & Astronomy!

One is all about developing new ways to model open quantum systems: www.ph.ed.ac.uk/phd-projects...

The other is about disorder and many-body localisation: www.ph.ed.ac.uk/phd-projects...

Just ask for more info!
