Have A Master In Science, Want A Post-Doc Position Directly?
Do you have a master in Science, and want to start a Post-Doc position directly? You can have it, in Padova (Italy), to work with me on the PHINDER project, an EIC-funded Pathfinder grantee.
I am offering a two-year position for research in nanophotonics-powered neuromorphic computing for particle detector development at INFN, Sezione di Padova. The call will open soon, so you should watch this space if you are interested.

Motorcyles Are Fun Death Machines
A graphic from the Washington Post about motorcycle deaths is making the rounds again on Twitter, and it will set off a lot of comments by people who can't put it in context, so let's go back to the source paper.
Here is what you need to know:
If you ride 15 miles every day on a motorcycle for a year, you have a 1 in 860 chance of dying.
If you fly 500 miles every day on an airplane for a year, you have a 1 in 85,000 chance of dying.
