- Congrats to Dr Jack Gartside on his ERC Starting Grant! 🙌 His project MORPHON is building brain-inspired computers that learn using light - not electricity. A low-carbon leap with big implications for AI. 🧠💡 Read more: www.imperial.ac.uk/news/268033/... @erc.europa.eu #ERCStG

- "Synthetic" motion can be faster than light! The trick is to change the properties of a material in a way resembling a Mexican wave: Although no one leaves their seat, their organised motion creates a wave. We can make such a change in a material, faster than light, with intense laser illumination.

- 🇮🇹 Yesterday, we celebrated the Italian Republic surrounded by #Caravaggio ’s masterpieces at the #NationalGallery . A perfect tribute to Italy’s rich heritage! ✨ #FestaDellaRepubblica
- its crazy how dominant germany was in science (especially chemistry) in the 19th century, it was basically the international language for scientists, people came from all over the world to train at heidelberg etc, and then....
