Dance of Scales
Itai is working with Redshift productions and Maren Waldman, a choreographer and dancer, to create a dance and spoken word performance focused on motion at different length scales.

Finding Your Scientific Voice
Scientific Voice 10 minute Promo from Melanie Dreyer on Vimeo.
This six-session workshop exposed participants to techniques for presenting themselves in public. Students used improvisation, physical and vocal exercises, and multiple presentation assignmentsto help them find their scientific voice when speaking to fellow scientists, funding agents, and the lay public.
The Prank
In honor of Jesse Silverberg, who continued the tradition set in motion by the original pranksters Sharon Gerbode and Mark Buckley.
Droplet Breakup in Structured Fluids
We work in collaboration with the Procter & Gamble Company to understand the flow and breakup of complex fluids. In particular, we study the pinch-off dynamics of fluids (e.g. lyotropic surfactants and thermotropic liquid crystals) possessing liquid crystalline order.
Epitaxial Growth of Colloidal Crystals
Why do some materials grow near-perfect crystals with mirror-smooth faces whereas others grow rough, bumpy crystals? Our group has recently gotten a glimpse of crystal growth in real time — not by watching individual atoms, but rather by freezing model atoms that can be observed directly with an optical microscope.
