⚛️🧪 Remembering that the states in electronic bands are built from orbitals that can carry angular momentum is the key to understanding the orbital Hall effect (a concept that really didn't exist when I learned solid state physics in school). nanoscale.blogspot.com/2025/11/what...

With funding from the Dutch NWO, we are looking for a postdoc with expertise in #DNP and/or #ssNMR experiments/hardware. One focus in the work will be to follow-up on our work on in-situ illuminated ssNMR for studying #photochemistry processes. #nmrchat werkenbij.rug.nl/vacature/pos...

Thank you @eugenie-reich.bsky.social for sharing your insights and journey while working on ‘Plastic Fantastic’ in your brilliant talk yesterday. Highly appreciate your continued work in this direction.And I got my book signed! @zernike-institute.bsky.social @unigroningen.bsky.social

I'm very happy to say that Plastic Fantastic, my book on scientific fraud at Bell Laboratories, is available online as an affordable paperback or ebook. The content is the same but it has taken taken months to reformat after rights reverted to me from the original publisher.

MRI scans show that the brains of infants and toddlers can encode memories, even if we don’t remember them as adults. https://go.nature.com/4l1Twi3

Delighted to have EugenieReich, author of Plastic Fantastic deliver the Zernike Colloquium on ‘Scientific Fraud in the 21st Century’: April 3, 16 h @unigroningen.bsky.social @zernike-institute.bsky.social

Great to see this collaboration making an impact in neuromorphic computing! 🧠 Exciting research, Azminul Jaman, Lorenzo Fratino, Majid Ahmadi, Rodolfo Rocco, Bart Kooi, Marcelo Rozenberg, Tamalika Banerjee! 📑 advanced.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... @tamalika.bsky.social

As someone who has reported on AI for 7 years and covered China tech as well, I think the biggest lesson to be drawn from DeepSeek is the huge cracks it illustrates with the current dominant paradigm of AI development. A long thread. 1/

Whenever I have pressed the case that John von Neumann should be considered the father of the modern stored-program computer ie the one that nearly everyone uses and carries around in their pockets, I've been met with hurt rebukes. So let's lay out von Neumann's claim properly...
