It's #quantum, y'all! And what we need, need, need is (more) excitement to encourage #students to pursue quantum #science.
Quantum isn't science fiction. Knoxville hopes to be hub for the 'revolutionary' tech
Quantum may sound like movie magic, but Oak Ridge physicists have worked to harness its power for decades.

I started wearing wigs (technically hair toppers) in April 2023. I'd been thinking about it for awhile but got serious during COVID when chunks of my hair started falling out. Now, I wear a topper nearly every day -- and very few folks can tell. 😎

Something sweet I saw while on a lab visit. While explaining her research, the scientist had motioned to a periodic table magnet that had been "decorated" by her kid. 🖍️

Curious question ... Could a move to Bluesky be viewed as the digital equivalent of "moving to Canada" when it's not feasible to actually move? Asking for a friend.

During the Prairie Ridge Ecostation tour last week, I learned that prairies are native to the eastern part of the U.S. and have been almost completely wiped out by development, and that, yes, I have been conditioned to fear nature. A little #prairie time did me some good! #SciWri24
