Big week in Matsuyama 🇯🇵 for AIRAPT-29! Honoured to be elected to the AIRAPT Exec Comm & to represent 🇦🇺 at the ACHPR meeting. Pic from the conference dinner!

Also excited our new paper is out in APL-shear lowers Ge phase transformation thresholds with a reversible path!

Very much enjoying being at a high pressure conference in beautiful Matsuyama, Japan this week. The region is known for its oranges- hence the logo of the meeting which is an orange / high pressure cell. 10/10 🍊

A lesson in advanced materials: why it can take the longest time to find the shortest path

Physicists have pioneered a new method for making a rare form of silicon, prized for its remarkable properties. It's work that took ten years to come to fruition.

ANU physicists Prof @jodiebradby.bsky.social and A/Prof Bianca Haberl have developed a new method to make a rare form of silicon with remarkable properties.
It took a decade to get here: a lesson not to underrate the slow science.

10 Years of Gravitational Wave Science: The Australian Story

Ten years ago, in 2015, we heard the universe for the very first time. Gravitational waves, once a prediction of Einstein’s theory, had finally been detected in an event labelled GW150914. It was a…

I will be a strong and consistent voice that:
(1) makes sure the Council knows and acts on the realities of ANU staff,
(2) holds management accountable,
(3) implements genuine transparency in decision making, and
(4) insists on integrity and accountability.
