This platform used to be inspiring and fun, but now it's buried in ads and toxicity under @elonmusk’s ownership. I’m out. Stay updated with our group on LinkedIn—search Hamid Ohadi.
CMQM conf in St And brought diverse experts together, from hard CM to polaritons. Hopefully this will result in collaborations between traditionally non-overlapping fields. Thanks to Peter Wahl for heavy lifting.@wahl_group @univofstandrews @PhysAstroStAnd

Our new work on "Nonlinear Rydberg exciton-polaritons in Cu2O microcavities" has just appeared in Light Science and Applications. Great UK/Germany collaboration crucially supported by a Centre-to-Centre EPSRC grant between Sheffield and TU Dortmund. nature.com/articles/s41377-0…
Rydberg polaritons in Cu2O become nonlinear! nature.com/articles/s41377-0… excellent collaboration with @ldsd_research

Finally out - how good are different surfaces at deactivating SARS-CoV-2 viruses? Copper beats them almost all - except cuprous oxide (Cu₂O). Question is - why? Read more at doi.org/10.1128/aem.01553-23. Great collaboration across CDQM (cdqm.uk) and School of Biology.

Great collaboration with @OpticManip @grahamdbruce and Andrea Di Falco’s group.
Sara and Anindya had fun explaining the working principles of a Michelson interferometer with a live demo in our public outreach day on Saturday.

My commitment to refuse invitations to academic conferences with all-male lineup is in its 7th year. I stick to this (& I did upset a few), and I encourage other scientists to join. The fight for equality is far from over.

Happy International Women's Day!
We're celebrating women who have changed the world. Here's all of the amazing women who have received the #NobelPrize and their remarkable achievements at the time of the award.
Who are the women who inspire you the most?
