Beyond excited to have joined @CERN that operates the largest particle physics laboratory in the world & is one of the world's largest and most respected centres for scientific research. Happy to be in innovative engineering and research, alongside brilliant minds. @CERNpress

2024 also marked me with the honour of being selected as the 2024 postdoc lifetime affiliate of the @KISS_Caltech Pasadena USA. Insightful moments with influential people from @NASA, @AIAAUAEU @ClayMowry, @HB_Robotics, etc New projects! kiss.caltech.edu/programs.htm #SpaceExploration



Honoured to be one of the few travel #awardees of the Inaugural GLObal Conference for #Women #Leaders and Emerging Researchers in #Materials #Science in #Singapore @NTUsg – a country and University from which I came utterly captivated and impressed beyond measure! @aaas


Very happy to be a selected affiliate of @KISS_Caltech and have great friends @Caltech @NASAJPL @bethanyehlmann @harriet_brettle @robot_in_space2 @ZacharyAhmad @cosmo_chn @MStramenga @EvanHazeNunez and many more! Follow us and join our Kech Institute for Space Studies Programs!
Our @KISS_Caltech affiliates are out of this world! Last week we celebrated the summer, practiced our elevator pitches, and looked ahead to the upcoming fall workshops! Learn more about our affiliates: bit.ly/KISSaffiliates And our 2024 study programs: bit.ly/KISSprograms
Alloy Design Workshop at @MIT. Thank you for inviting me Prof @TasanGroupMIT The workshop had top speakers including Prof @MoatazAttallah and Prof @DrPham_ICL with whom I was very happy to meet again.

I continued learning about #AM technologies and I thank you @ASTMAMCOE Additive Manufacturing Center of Research to Standards for the certificate in “In-Situ Technologies for Additive Manufacturing”. View my verified achievement from @ASTMIntl . I highly recommend the course!

Continuing the posting of belated news, but now about #additive #manufacturing (AM): In May, I became part of the editorial board of the #Corrosion & Additive Manufacturing Section of #Materials Today Communications @ElsevierConnect . Submit your work in AM! #3Dprinter
Correct link for the paper is: doi.org/10.1111/ffe.13… onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ff… Sorry!
Thank you to the scientific community that has followed our paper in Fatigue in shape memory alloys lnkd.in/gJWSjP3Q which number of downloads ranked it within the top 10% of papers published in 2022, and was recognized as a top cited paper among work published in 2022-23.
More papers in shape memory alloys are coming and my preparation in SMA has continued. I would like to thank you @NASA for the possibility of more training in SMAs and the 2024 certificate: “Shape Memory Alloys – Designing Your Next Device”.

Last week we welcomed 100+ @Caltech and @NASAJPL colleagues to @KISS_Caltech to help build strong and diverse joint research programs between JPL and Campus. We look forward to seeing where these collaborations take us!
I am happy to be part of this editorial board and I encourage my colleagues in the additive manufacturing community to submit their papers to Materials Today Communications.
And the Editorial Board of the Corrosion & Additive Manufacturing Section is now complete with a great set of experts: Zachary Harris, Alfredo Zafra, @LiviaCupertino, Richard Barker, Tom Depover, @MarliniSimoes, Beatriz Mingo and Kentaro Wada sciencedirect.com/journal/materi…
In this #EML paper, two novel machine learning approaches (called as shape-frequency features and unit-cell templates) are developed to discover 2D metamaterials with user-specified frequency band gaps. @CDaraio @CynthiaRudin sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
Did you happen to miss the #EML_Webinar Series (Young Researchers Forum) on September 12, 2023? No need to worry. The recording of the webinar has been uploaded to the official EML YouTube channel, and you can access it via the following link: youtube.com/watch?v=-xBbbx…
We are thrilled to announce that #EML will re-launch the #EML_Webinar Series (Young Researchers Forum) on Sept. 12, 2023. These webinars are scheduled to occur monthly, totaling 10 to 12 webinars per year. The webinars will be conducted through Zoom and live-streamed on YouTube.
Congratulations to our new Special Editors @ZhengJia_ZJU @Mingchao_Liu @JingdaT of Extreme Mechanics Letters journal #EML. Keep checking our news for the @EmlWebinar, special issues, etc - much more to come. @Elsevier_Eng @ElsevierConnect
Extreme Mechanics Letters (EML) is very pleased to announce the appointments of the following Special Editors: Zheng Jia @ZhengJia_ZJU : EML Webinars – Young Researchers Forum Mingchao Liu @Mingchao_Liu : Social Media Engagement Jingda Tang @JingdaT : Special Issues
Dear all, you can now follow up our fully operational social media platforms for our Extreme Mechanics Letters journal #EML. Thank you! @EmlWebinar @ElsevierConnect @zhigangsuo @kjhsia623
