Congratulations to Gali Alon Tzezana, who successfully defended her PhD (over Zoom!)

Congratulations to Yuanhang Zhu and Yunxing Su, who’s paper on nonlinear aeroelastic instabilities appeared in JFM this month.

We wish a fond farewell to two lab members: Varghese Mathai is moving up the road to take on a faculty position at U. Mass Amherst; Gali Alon Tzezana is returning to Israel and will return to Rafael Industries.  We will see you soon (hopefully in person!)

Congratulations to Zijie Qu (currently a Post Doc at Caltech) who’s paper on bacterial swimming in non-Newtonian fluids was published this week in Physical Review Fluids, and was highlighted as an Editors Selection.

Two very nice pictures from Pembroke college (Cambridge), one taken in  1899 celebrating the 50th year of Stokes appointment at Pembroke, the other taken in 2019, celebrating his 200th birthday.  Scientific luminaries worth identifying: Stokes, Kelvin and Breuer!!  (a few others as well)

Congratulations to our graduating seniors:  Eric Shaw (moving to Texas to work at Lockheed Martin), Julian Lopez-Uricoechea (moving to Atlanta to start Grad school at Ga. Tech and William Haddock (moving to California to work at SpaceX) – Bon Voyage!

Congratulations to Varghese who accepted a position as Assistant Professor of Physics at U.Mass Amherst.  He starts on Aug. 1st – we are so excited for him, but will be sorry to see him go.

Congratulations to Asimanshu and Varghese for their paper published today in Applied Physics Letters on the nonlinear mechanics of ultrasoft silicone elastomers 

Congrats to Matteo, Eric and Yunxing on their new paper in Science Robotics on the Separated Flow wing (co-authored with Stephano Mintchev of ETH-Zurich)

We successfully migrated and updated the website to its new location: sites.brown.edu/breuerlab. lots of new and old pictures, updated content.
