In each place I gave a tutorial and a technical talk, mostly an hour each session, with audiences in the range 50-100 in each case. The trip was phenomenal. I am a bit at a loss to communicate just how warmly the outreach was received. Science is truly the common language.

Bacteria can propel themselves like a corkscrew by wrapping their flagella around their body. How do they do it? A new study in Physical Review E suggests they take advantage of motor-induced buckling instability to perform this method of locomotion.

Experiments and simulations explore the flow and interface dynamics near a moving contact line at obtuse angles, revealing a sharp flow deceleration along the interface, offering insight into the classical moving contact line singularity.
