I am incredibly honored to share that I've received the NSF CAREER Award! nsf.gov/awardsearch/show-awa…. Thankful to @NSF for their support and to the program managers & reviewers for their hard work. This award will support my group's work on a problem I find endlessly fascinating.
Processing of HDPE/polypropylene blends by differential speed rolling leads to attractive mechanical properties without the need for compatibilizers @gwnek

Gone are the days when a football helmet consisted of a simple rigid shell lined with foam padding.
Instead, new materials, designs, and technologies enable a modern helmet to flex and deform. Learn more: scim.ag/4a5XMcK @NewsfromScience

Great read by @ProfBuehlerMIT. We must change how we make new materials. Time is now.
