Thank you, Pablo! So grateful to work with you, and an amazing team and collaborators on such an interesting topic.
Grateful to have been part of this project, a long effort that began when I was still a postdoc in Manchester. Congratulations to all the co-authors, but especially to Laura @laurafumagalli.bsky.social the driving force behind this work 4/5

I'm sure this Science story on how systematic reviews are threatened by paper mills is good, but the illustration by Sara Gironi Carnevale is great

What a better way for a first post here 🦋 than announcing a recent work available online?🤗
We have investigated the effects of #2Dmaterials on #magnetic signals🧲. Kudos to Alonso Aldave, Miriam Jaafar and Willy López-Polín. Short🧵👇🏼

I had a hard time finding women physicists here. So I made a starter pack for #female and #under-represended #minorities in #physics, in short #FURMIP.
Please spread the word and
let me know if you would like to be added.

so far, my impression of a few days is that LinkedIn is rather confusing and more business/career related,
and that BlueSky is quite like the old twitter, with a mix of science, news, fun, beauty, etc.

BlueSky looks promising! Lets make it work.

I stayed around at X/twitter by lack of alternatives. Tried 'Threads' for a while but almost no one was/is there.

In the upcoming month, I'll post and interact at X but in parallel also at BlueSky and LinkedIn.

Per 1/1/25 I'll switch for good (likely to Bsky?) or stop altogether.

Ending X/twitter...?

Its been 2 years since Elon Musk took over twitter and basically killed it. As a result, many people left this social platform X, and the timeline got increasingly less interesting and more and more filled with ads.

👀 We've never published as much, yet we've never read as little (a paradox to reflect about 🤔)

There's lots of buzz about scientists on #bluesky! Don't forget to make room for the medical and science historians, too! Here's my #starterpack of some awesome people (and institutes). From medieval astrolabes to Victorian corsets, radium soap, and beyond! I got you covered.
