Pretty decent views from the office-for-the-next-few-months.

As part of his magnificent M.Sc thesis at @pcc-wur.bsky.social , Christoph shows how to harness viscoelasticity to control spontaneous self-emulsification of multicomponent droplets. More in the open access article: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Last few spots for this exciting summer school are still open!

Excited to share our new paper in @pnas.org doi.org/10.1073/pnas...! Ice cubes often appear cloudy because, as water freezes, air bubbles get trapped and scatter light. But how does freezing rate affect the shape of the bubbles?

Are you enthusiastic about interdisciplinary research at the interface of physics and biology, and using state-of-the-art experimental and theoretical tools to unravel the biophysical mechanisms of immune cell functioning? Then we might have an open PhD position for you! www.wur.nl/en/vacancy/p...

The next edition of the Han-sur-Lesse summerschool on Soft Matter and Biological Physics is now finalised, with lectures on 6 exciting topics! Join us this summer in the Belgian Ardennes for 5 days of science and socialising. Seats are limited, so hurry! #softmatter #biophysics hslwinterschool.com

Breaking Barriers in Polymer Materials Design Last October we had a great time at the Lorentz Center in Leiden, discussing how to break barriers in polymer materials design! (1/6)

Welcome @pcc-wur.bsky.social to this blue place. #softmatter #physical-chemistry

#Jobs We are looking for a new colleague! Tenure Track Assistant Professor in Biophysics in the domains of functional imaging and biophysics. More info here: www.wur.nl/en/vacancy/a...

Here’s a Christmas present for y’all: a new physics post! I’ve done these things on “the other side”—let’s see how many people are interested on 🦋! I’ll be talking about a famous principle in classical mechanics: that of “least action.” And I’ll tell you why it’s a misnomer! Buckle up! 1/26

We have an open interdisciplinary PhD position on using experiments and theory to unravel the biophysical mechanisms of immune cell functioning @w-u-r.bsky.social. www.wur.nl/en/vacancy/p...

As someone on the reader side, I might even add how badly such a review was needed, and how enlightening it has been to read this.

Are you a theoretical/computational (bio/soft matter) physicist interested in studying how plant tissues respond to mechanical forces? Then we may have an open PhD position for you: www.wur.nl/en/vacancy/p...

Moved over from that other place. Seems like a good decision already!
