This is fabulous! 💃
For reference, I got tagged in the comments of a CERN conspiracy video and then was looking at other comments and found some discussing whether I'm there to distract people from 'the truth' 🫠
Something new: as part of training early career scientists at @nikhef.bsky.social, the next 3 days, Gideon Koekoek, @particleclara.bsky.social, Lisa Lehmann, Vanessa Mexner and myself will organise a workshop on science communication.
35 PhD's and post-docs!
Agenda:

It's a weird feeling when you see a comments section of a video and there are people you've never met in there discussing you 😅

It's #FunPhysicsFriday - let's dance 💃! This week's article uses instructional dance videos to teach electron behavior in metals, insulators, semiconductors, and superconductors. Boogie over to this link for more: https://ow.ly/OljK50YBtWj #edutainment #physicseducation #scienceexperiments
An excellent open-letter enumerating the dangers to early career researchers and then wider society of proposed changes to UK science funding
