I had the opportunity to present my research in a Colloquium at Haverford College. Thank you to Prof. Karen Masters and everyone in the Department for inviting me. It was a refreshing experience.

Please join me for the LU-MRRL virtual talk "All about Cholesterol and its Cholesteric Friends."

Commonly, when we talk about cholesterol we assign it a negative connotation. However, is cholesterol such an evil compound? Get to know the cholesterol molecule, its role within our bodies and lives, and how it has helped in the development of some mind-blowing technology advances.

Watch anytime: https://youtu.be/jUhdC90Wsjc.

A Special Thanks to Prof. Christine Boston for organizing this Lecture Series!

Presented the talk “Modeling Anisotropic Hybrid Soft Materials“ to a highly creative and interdisciplinary audience.

I had a great time during my visit to Lincoln and Jefferson City! A big thanks to Prof. Michael Scott for inviting me!

Presented the seminar:

“Dynamic modeling of advanced hybrid soft materials: How running experiments on a computer create fantastic results and a little bit of “magic”?”

I had a wonderful time meeting everyone at SUNY Geneseo. It was a wonderful and energizing experience! Thanks to Prof. Charlie Freeman and Prof. Aaron Steinhauer for inviting me!

Presented the talk "Dynamic modeling of advanced hybrid soft materials" to colleagues in the BNT/MNF team at the Mesa+ Institute for Nanotechnology, University of Twente.

Thank you again to the research group as well as Prof. Dr. Nathalie Katsonis and Prof. Dr. Tibor Kudernac for the opportunity to chat about my work and foster collaborations.

I really enjoyed visiting the University of Luxembourg, talking with colleagues and presenting the talk "Dynamic Modelling of Advanced Hybrid Materials" at the Research Unit Seminar.

A big thanks to Anshul Sharma, Larry Honaker and Prof. Jan Lagerwall for their hospitality!
