The MSCA postdoc fellowship funding scores this year are absolutely brutal. Funding thresholds for some disciplines are as high as 97%!

It’s almost a lottery at this point

Wow! I don’t think I’ve heard many people say that the weather in Singapore is “quite pleasant”

Caltech Mourns the Passing of George Rossman (1944–2026) Caltech mineralogist George Rossman (PhD '71) passed away on February 6, 2026.

George Rossman was one of the kindest professors I knew during my time at Caltech. Incredible scientist with an infectious passion for science. I have fond memories of him showing me his collection of rocks and metals that he kept in his office.

RIP

Birth Lottery If you were reborn today, where would you land? And how would that change your life?

Brilliant little online tool: Spin the globe and see what your life would have been like had you gotten a different draw in the place-of-birth lottery

Yeah I hear you about these big conferences. But unfortunately, people at my level gotta network...

Conference registration fees are getting out of hand. I know its part of the tenure game but I can't justify dropping 800 USD to go give a talk.
