Lin Lanying, PhD, is known as “the mother of semiconductor materials” in China. Despite her family’s resistance to educating women, Lin earned a doctoral degree from the University of Pennsylvania in 1955. Lin returned to China in 1957, where she manufactured China’s first monocrystalline silicon and also designed China’s first monocrystal furnace used to extract silicon metal. Her research laid the foundation for the development of micro-electronics and optoelectronics in China.

Amidst all terrible news, I am sad that here it is not better. Today the VU Amsterdam announced they'll cut Earth Sciences, and fire 39 staff. 130 students are left to figure out how to finish, and an unknown number of PhDs lose their supervisors. My heart goes out to my colleagues 😳😥
