New Cottrell Scholars and Holland Award recipients raise their trophies in celebration.
Members of all but four cohorts of #CottrellScholars since 1994 were in Tucson this week to welcome a new group of outstanding teacher-scholars to this special community. Congratulations!

Yoooo - Thanks for coming out last night to see Harmonic Motion Scruffy City Hall (w/
a Science&Reason DJ set). Was a blast to play some bloops, crack open a guitar, and try a hand at live VJing for Science&Reason in #touchdesigner. So good to see everyone and hope to play again for you soon!
Test one two three
After my set tomorrow, I try my hand at a little VJing for Science & Reasonβs set π¨π»βπ¨

We usually get very few American applicants in EU unis (zero again, so far), but maybe at this moment in time it's a nice opportunity?
Deadline is flexible.
NSF has taken down their award management system while conducting a comprehensive review to check compliance with recent EOs. This means, among other things, that NSF fellows canβt request their Feb 1st paychecks
What a time to be on a βprizeβ fellowship

Great talk by Mark Palmer on US muon collider activities at HEPAP today. Scrappy grassroots efforts by hundreds of scientists while we wait for official US funding agency responses to the P5 βmuon shotβ so we can collaborate more effectively with the International muon collider collaboration! π§ͺβοΈ
