Tom Mullin visits
Tom Mullin was visiting us this week, to discuss our projects on sinking (and rising) intruders in soft hydrogel packings. We had a great time with many inspiring discussions to stimulate another work of science. The first year students helping out on the project could also join for the dinner, connecting several generations of scientists!
Salamina Grain Workshop
Traveling to Masseria Salamina for a fantastic setting to do science in small groups. The location was perfect, food was amazing, the pool refreshing, and despite the distraction, lots of science got done. And Bari, the closest major town, has huge grains for coastal protection.
