ой, це я так ніколи не можу правильно сказати вогнегасник і протигаз :))

Every machine in a Hospital that diagnoses your body without cutting you open is based on a principle of Physics, discovered by a Physicist who had no interest in Medicine.

If you think the world doesn’t need Basic Science, or that somehow Science has failed you, think again.

A bit late on the "vegetative electron microscopy" meme, but hey, it's the end of the semester, so it's also "vegetative Raman spectroscopy" and "vegetative responses to Reviewer 2" season. :)))

That day when I have to showcase the lecture and a colleague who I know is a) more knowledgable on the topic and b) younger than me decides to attend unexpectingly. I could really use less cortisol in my life :))

Free water or bound-to-the-polymer water? Check out our new paper in Soft Matter :)

Commence the "Sunday long run is non-negotiable" vs "But the ballistic attack, and i didn't sleep that well, and the whole being kind to oneself" inner monologue!

quantitative methods, yay! ;)

Ukraine’s clandestine book club defies Russia’s push to rewrite history Risking discovery and even prison, teenage readers meet in secret to discuss texts that Putin’s troops are trying to erase

"It must be one of the most dangerous book clubs in the world."

A bit unexpected to see "speckle pattern", "vodka", and "Python" in a single paper :)))

мені подобається, що ці фейспалми ще й застарівають швидко. Мій улюблений новий: Пентагон позначив на видалення фото, які можуть бути про всяке дайверсіті, включно з фото літака, який скинув бомбу на Хіросіму, бо літак називався Enola GAY.

Nobel laureates’ joint appeal for transfer of Russian sanctioned state assets for Ukraine’s recovery and compensation As of 24 February 2025, the unlawful war of aggression waged by the Russian Federation against Ukraine WILL mark THE END OF ITS sad third anniversary, and will be entering its fourth year. The fight...

One of the reasons for profs. Haroche's and Krasz's visit was to present the joint appeal of 100+ Nobel laureates in which they call for the confiscation of all russia's sanctioned state assets which can then be used for the reconstruction of Ukraine.

You can read the appeal below.

Had to wait several days before posting anything about this event due to the security measures, and it was such a challenge not to post AAAAAA!!!1, because I was so nervous and so excited, and oh my god it was soo cool!

It was a pleasure and an honour to moderate the "100 years of quantum physics" event with Nobel prize laureates, Prof. Haroche and Prof. Krausz, that took place this Tuesday in the shelter of Taras Shevchenko University of Kyiv.

Instead of using ChatGPT, why not just get a family member to lie to you while they set fire to a tree?

Serhiy Prytula Charity Foundation Invincible when united!

Serhiy Prytula Foundation

Or, if you want to donate through the foundation, the 2 most respectable ones are:

UNITED24 - The initiative of the President of Ukraine UNITED24 was launched by the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy as the main venue for collecting charitable donations in support of Ukraine. Funds will be transferred to the official accounts of...

United24 is our government's initiative aimed exactly at that. All donations are collected directly by the National Bank of Ukraine and then redistributed to a relevant ministry.

What can I do to fight this coup? If you look, there are people resisting at every level. Blockades of freeways. American Bar Association urging an end to...

Lots of folks are asking what they can do to be helpful in this moment. I like the short list of action items that @choosedemocracy.bsky.social lists on their site. Democratic civil society is about being stronger together. Any effective strategy flows from that. choosedemocracy.us/what-can-i-do/

and now the russians are targeting the Sarcophagus (the structure protecting the remains of Chernobyl nuclear power station from radiation leaks). Happy Valentine's Day y'all

Ukrainian tip #2574: "Mr Tambourine Man" is a great song to sing in a bathroom while sheltering there from an early morning ballistic attack on your city.

Чим відрізняється помиральна яма у блюскаї від звичайної п.я. соціальних мереж? У ній, судячи з моєї стрічки/діскавер фіду, міститься значно більше книжок.

Back from a seminar "Incorporating AI into university STEM curriculum", and got so. many. feels.

On one hand it was absolutely amazing to see the main auditorium packed (because u know, covid, then war) and the audience so visibly engaged.

On the other: i really can't stand the technobro vibe.

Me today

Вітання зі святковим днем! Здоров'я, наснаги і усього найкращого!

Geronimo!

Let's get this spring semester (party) started!

*enthusiastically nods in support of the rethink*

a close up of a man 's face with the word csi on the bottom ALT: a close up of a man 's face with the word csi on the bottom

A crazy outreach idea, absolutely not cost-effective, but it got stuck in my head: a CSI-like real life mystery!
With like some invisible fluorescent ink, comparing diffent kinds of sand under SEM and collecting the Raman spectrum of idunnowhatever. And running down the corridors.
