Congrats to Prof. Han! 🖐️ She is the fifth Rice Engineering faculty member to earn a CAREER Award this year.
We're thrilled to congratulate Prof. Yimo Han (@han_yimo), who has won an @NSF CAREER Award! Her research will use recent electron microscopy approaches to observe the deformation mechanisms of 2D materials.

The world lost a great man and a true champion of civil rights today. I recall many years ago sitting next to Rep Lewis on a flight from Atlanta to DC. I was struck by how nice and humble he was. He will be missed.

I’m reminded that in 2015 we had to build the database of police killings that the federal government *to this day* has not done and that data has been vital to understanding what legislative actions must be taken in this moment.

For those who are interested in research-based solutions to stop police violence, here’s what you need to know - based on the facts and data. A thread. (1/x)

At the worst time, a second wave of locusts 20 times bigger than the first has descended on East Africa, thanks to heavy rains late last month, threatening food security and livelihoods globally. @WIRED reports: wired.com/story/africas-huge…

200 million lives are at stake if we don’t take action to contain the locust swarms in Africa, the Middle East and Asia. We have released a free Tool Kit to monitor the situation in real time and empower organizations to take action. Find it here: bit.ly/2Vv1eWD

Closing so many buildings for so long is unprecedented. Before reopening them, the plumbing systems will need to be thoroughly investigated, experts say. Stagnant water can lead to bacterial and chemical contamination circleofblue.org/2020/world/…
