Thank you Times Higher Education for having this conversation with me on the importance of interdisciplinary research! Our work at Northwestern Engineering could not have been possible without the support, guidance, and mentorship of the Schmidt Science Fellows.
Join my team at Schmidt Science Fellows! Our new Fellowship Affairs Manager will work closely with our growing Fellowship community—delivering support, driving forward initiatives to foster collaboration and connection, and curating activities and platforms.

I am looking for three new #postdocs to join our group at Northwestern. We build models to probe tough questions about #sustainability . Project topics: carbon capture and utilization (with Ted Sargent ), energy-water systems, and H2 systems. postdocs.northwestern.edu/announcements/…
We’re about to start on actuation and shape morning in SF06 Robotic and Autonomous Materials! Al Crosby and Tim White 🦬 are our invited speakers after the break. #F23MRS Materials Research Society (MRS)
No Schmidt Science Fellows. We owe y'all the special thanks. Y'all have nurtured five special cohorts and integrated us into one family. Y'all have built a community we cannot help but give back to unconditionally. Y'all have grown the debt of gratitude we owe this amazing community. 🩵
Wonderful to spend time with the senior Schmidt Science Fellows in Chicago this week, a remarkable network of talented scientists whose potential impact together, in interdisciplinary collaborations, far outstrips the potential impact of any single scientist alone.
