How do I update this information in Google scholar? Like how do I tell it that I am corresponding author?

Interesting! I don’t know how I feel about it. In part, I like it because labs have quite different policies for authorship when it comes to early-career non-first author. So having the metrics be heavily influenced by these middle-authorships also does not seem fair.

Thank you! 😊

@rohanblake.bsky.social they are peacock feathers!

I have used CAD before - many companies (like thorlabs) have stl files of their equipment you can download and just drop in… maybe the light rays are easier to add with something like Inkscape later on?

I think this is the one I had in mind doi.org/10.1126/scie...

You probably already know, but scallop eyes have really cool optics 😎

Thinking about when we both attended the #ICRS2022 without knowing anyone there (at least me) and connected through the Twitter hashtag the first day!

So for MEEP there is a conda package which works with Linux and Mac; but for windows only with Ubuntu from what I gather. That is somewhat difficult for this project which is supposed to run on a PC with limited admin rights etc - so the less “tinkering” involved, the better…

Thanks, we looked at MEEP but apparently you need Linux / Ubuntu which unfortunately poses a problem for us. Just out of curiosity, what’s your case against the open-source FDTD codes?

My personal opinion is that there is no such thing as being apolitical. Staying silent is a choice too, and it also has consequences…

We put our protocol preprint on researchsquare which was the preprint server recommended by the journal. They take protocols but the submission process was a bit finicky.
