What a day! I started with an online talk at my former Ph.D. advisor's retirement workshop, and a few hours later I celebrated the successful Ph.D. defense of my student 🤩 I am reflecting on the impact that my advisor had on my life, and trying to propagate it forward to my own students.

It was my great pleasure to work with @fannyetienne.bsky.social, Johannes Jahan and everyone else on the #pint25 team! Already looking forward to a great #pint26! Please get in touch if you want to help organize the event in your town!
For the second time, I had the amazing opportunity to co-direct Pint of Science in the US with @claudiaratti.bsky.social and Johannes Jahan. I couldn't be prouder of all the volunteers who made this possible and grateful for our sponsors to trust us.
I can't wait for the #pint26 edition🤩
🌆16 Cities, 🍸27 bars, 👨‍🏫150 speakers & 🎟️2,400 tickets sold! We thank all the venues, our sponsors, our AMAZING teams of volunteers who made it possible, and of course... YOU, our attendees, for your making it such a success! 🤩
📅See you next year on May 18-19-20 for #pint26

#pint25 is over, and it was a big success! We sold out all evenings in Houston and in many other cities. Lots of fun discussions and interest from the audience! Many thanks to all city teams for making it possible. Mark your calendars for #pint26: May 18, 19, 20. See you next year!

Very grateful to the organizers of our biggest conference, Quark Matter 2025, for streaming all the talks! We all cheered remotely for our undergrad @jappus.bsky.social today, who gave his talk at the conference in Frankfurt. He did so well! 🤩

I finally had the pleasure of attending a talk by Tatiana Erukhimova from @tamu.bsky.social. She is so engaging, I really enjoyed and admire her energy!

New paper day! We calculate the D-measure in a hadronic vs quark-gluon plasma scenarios and compare to LHC data, finding moderate evidence for fluctuations freezing out in the quark phase. arxiv.org/abs/2504.02085
Evidence for freeze-out of charge fluctuations in the quark-gluon plasma at the LHC
The D-measure of event-by-event net-charge fluctuations was introduced over 20 years ago as a potential signal of quark-gluon plasma (QGP) in heavy-ion collisions, where it is expected to be suppresse...

New paper day! 4D equation of state for strongly interacting matter with extended coverage from first principles! www.arxiv.org/abs/2504.01881
A new 4D lattice QCD equation of state: extended density coverage from a generalized $T^\prime$-expansion
We present a new equation of state for QCD in which the temperature $T$ and the three chemical potentials for baryon number $μ_B$, electric charge $μ_Q$ and strangeness $μ_S$ can be varied independent...
