Too cool not to share - a team with my colleague @DrBWalsh1 just launched a probe that will land on the moon and X-ray image the heliosphere! The mission is called Ghost Riders in the Sky. They are between the earth and the moon now. Good luck! fireflyspace.com/missions/bl…

Next Wed at #F24MRS is #AIday! @JuandePablo6 speaks at noon in Symposium X, joint AI session from 3:30-5 with three invited talks in Hynes 210, and then AI Industry Panel at 5:30. Excited to discuss AI for Materials at @Materials_MRS! Thanks @Matter_CP for support!

How to know your research area has gone mainstream? Check out the assistant faculty job posting specifically for autonomous experimentation. Way to go @UWMadison and self driving labs! jobs.wisc.edu/jobs/assistant…

Amazing visit with Jie Xu and colleagues at @argonne in the @advancedphoton and Center for Nanoscale Materials. Wonderful discussion and great to see Polybot in person cranking away at polymer research. #SelfDrivingLabs

Really fun writing a perspective on #3DPrinting of #metamaterials with @ProfGraceGu. Despite needing experiment, many of the challenges are computational. rdcu.be/dR9vK

Thank you @instron for putting together an article featuring our work. We have run well over 30k experiments with our 5965 and it is still going strong! instron.com/en/resources/cas…

Belated congratulations to Kelsey Snapp for defending their doctoral thesis! Kelsey's journey automating materials science is far from over. Stay tuned for more great things!

Excited to introduce our latest robot - the PANDA! It can handle fluids, perform electrochemistry, & optically characterize polymer films. We first studied electrochromic films with it. Props to @soapy_bacon, Greg, and the Werner lab! @MaterHoriz pubs.rsc.org/en/content/arti…

Thanks to @johnkitchin and @CarnegieMellon #ChemicalEngineering for hosting me for a great visit. So much exciting Chemistry automation going on!

Just read that the popular 'Letters' format of research articles only exists because Rutherford wanted publication to keep pace with science, so he snuck research articles in to the 'letters to the editor' in @Nature So.... how long until we have a tweets format?

After conversations with 18 industry experts, I’m excited to share my research map on autonomous labs for scientific discovery.💡 View it here: bit.ly/autonomous-science-ma… This map highlights customer pain points, product opportunities, and the peer landscape. I hope it shortens the ramp-up time for those interested in entering this exciting field, which aims to accelerate the development of life-saving therapeutics and next-generation materials. A special thank you to the experts who generously shared their time and wisdom🙏. Hat tip to: Alan Gardner, Ben Collins, David Evans, @erika_alden_d, @gregmulholland, H. Craig Mak, @jakobzeitler, Jason Hattrick-Simpers, Jimmy Sastra, @johnmgregoire, @jonhennek, @KABrownLab, Luis Villa, Maxim Ratnikov, @michaelraspuzzi, Peter Kohli, @RoyKishony, and Steven Teng. Here’s to accelerating scientific discovery together. Onward. 🚀

Additive manufacturing of soft materials #GRC! Super fun to have nerd summer camp and learn from great researchers. Soft serve became my favorite thing to #3dprint @ronsmaldone @Macfarlane_RJ

Excellent time at @acceleration_c in #Vancouver. Wonderful to catch up with friends and colleagues while learning the latest in #SelfDrivingLabs. Thanks to @procrastiprof and @TheBerlinguette for hosting.

In case you are wondering, the order of suits is: clubs -> diamonds -> hearts -> spades -> AFM probes #Mirkunite33

Honored to be part of the Academies for Global Innovation and Digital Ethics (AGIDE) Report. It was amazing to work with members of academies from around the world. TLDR: people have many different narratives for ethics around digital issues verlag.oeaw.ac.at/en/product…

Thank you very much to @BU_Tweets @BUexperts for putting this article and video together! It was great working with you!

What do you get when you operate a self-driving lab for >2 years straight? #WorldRecord mechanical performance, transferrable mechanical insights, and a library of structure-property relationships. Thanks @NatureComms and team for this massive effort. nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

So honored to lead this effort and the great team. Community driven SDL's at @BU_Tweets!

Back to @theNASEM for the release of the Proceedings of the AI for Scientific Discovery Workshop! Excellent keynote by @laurahgreene and great orchestration by @bradmalin. Amazing how much has happened in #AI research since 10/23 nationalacademies.org/our-wo…

Thanks to @nadyapeek and @lilopozzo for putting together a great workshop on open source hardware featuring their Jubilee system. My students won't be surprised to learn that I break thinks in lab.
