Congratulations 2025 SOR Fellows!!

🚨 Our new paper is out in Nature Communications! We show that marine biogels can slow the sinking of organic particles by up to 45%, reshaping how we think about the oceanic carbon pump. Slower sinking = more degradation = less deep-ocean storage. 🔗 doi.org/10.1038/s41467…

If you agree that everything flows (πάντα ῥεῖ), then consider joining us at the 96th Annual Meeting of the @SoRheology, held in Santa Fe, New Mexico, from October 19-23, 2025. The abstract submission deadline has been extended to May 30, 2025! #SOR2025 rheology.org/sorabst/

SoR is excited to announce that Safa Jamali is the Society of Rheology 2025 Metzner awardee for contributions to the understanding of #suspensions, attractive #colloids, and #machine_learning techniques in rheology. We will celebrate Safa at our annual meeting this October!

🚨Delighted to co-chair w/ Katie Weigandt & Ria Corder the "Self-assemblies, #Gels and #Networks" session at the upcoming #SoR meeting! The abstract submission deadline is May 16, 2025 - submit a contribution, spread the word & join us in New Mexico, next October!!😎 @SoRheology

Delighted to be at #S25MRS to attend as #MRSJMRJournal Distinguished Invited Speaker for #SF07 Complexity Engineering of Materials Combining Order, Disorder and Hierarchical Organization. Thanks to organizers Nicholas A. Kotov Molly Stevens DBE Paul Bogdan Samuel Chigome !

Abstract submissions are officially open for the Society of Rheology's Annual Meeting in Santa Fe! #SoR2025

Please join us on Thursday, Mar 27th, 2025, from 1-2:00 PM EST for the Future of Rheology Seminar. We'll be hearing from Zhouyang Ge: Non-monotonic diffusion in sheared apolar active suspensions of squirmers and Vincenzo Calabrese: Capillary-driven thinning of DNA solutions

It was a real pleasure to present in this symposium organized by @TM_Truskett Tom Truskett, Delia Million and Zachary Sherman at #ACSSpring2025. Great talks. Great to have this topic preaent again at ACS.

The Gallery of Soft Matter 2025 @ApsDsoft has some amazing entries this year. Check them out here: engage.aps.org/dsoft/gallery/…. Make sure to vote! Not sure about the deadline, but there’s a QR code at the DSOFT table with all the details. #apsmarch

come to squishy science Sunday for some fun science activities indoor and outdoor!! We’ll be here 11 am - 3 pm

Finally published @ScienceMagazine: Can AI help yield new insights from vast amounts of Earth data? We use large-scale data and neural nets to find the constitutive laws of glacial ice, which differ from commonly assumed forms in conventional models. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Excited about discoveries of topological motifs in complex network materials! If you have not read the beautiful paper by Giorgia Palombo, Simon Weir, ⁦@Dmichiel1⁩, and Yair Fosado nature.com/articles/s4156… yet, please do! This is just my teaser … nature.com/articles/s4156…

Next Wednesday, Christian Coppola will present the next installment of the JNNFM + JoR + RA virtual seminar on the Applications of Nonlinear Polymer Viscoelasticity in Rubber Industry. Check your email for the link!

Stickiness matters! From powder handling to geophysical flows, cohesion in granular material plays a crucial role. We review in @softmatter experimental approaches to create and control inter-particle adhesion pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art… @ClarkSchool @UCSBengineering

The 2025 Society of Rheology's Annual Meeting will be held in enchanted Santa Fe, NM on October 19-23. Look for our call for abstracts later this spring and save the dates to discuss everything that flows. We hope to see you there! #SoR2025

Tonight we will shine in Red White and Blue to honor the life and legacy of President Jimmy Carter 📷: captiv_8/IG

There's gonna be some great #SoftEarthGeophysics at #AGU24 including "granular and fluid physics in Earth Surface Processes (e.g., agu.confex.com/agu/agu24/meet…). Our PennSED crew has some bangers! A thread

Please join us this season for a 🌟🌟special anniversary *triple* edition of Living Histories 🌟🌟 Find inspiration & community. Bring friends! 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿 @NigelGoldenfeld @athmapai @kh_dubay @Viveknprakash @JamesAGlazier1 @son_minjun @GeorgiaSquyres @BMunsky @Kalpana_M2021

We hope to see you tomorrow, Tuesday (11/12), for our Tedori-Callinan Distinguished Lecture with Gareth McKinley of @MIT!
