Last summer, I was blessed with the opportunity to learn about the basics of high temperature superconductors in the Yeh Group under the tutelage of visiting Professor Feng. We formed [...]
The benefits of Caltech's proximity to Hollywood don't usually trickle down to measly grad students like myself, except in the rare occasions when we befriend the industry's technical contingent. One [...]
Physicists are not known for finesse. “Even if it cost us our funding,” I’ve heard a physicist declare, “we’d tell you what we think.” Little wonder I irked the porter [...]
Hello?… The first thing I remember feeling moments later was panic. Five years before that day, I was a graduating senior at MIT pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics [...]
This blog has made the terrible decision to ask me to do more regular posts. Well, before trial and error catches up with me, let’s have some fun together… As [...]
