2015 Themes and Discussion Leaders

In a previous post, Learning to be a PhD advisor, I wrote about learning to do my job from students.  Over the years, I have also learned from writings of other scientists on doing research, its dynamics:  competition, despair, and exhilaration...  Here is a small sample that occurs to me this morning. 

POSITION: 

The Department of Engineering Mechanics, University of Nebraska-Lincoln, invites applications for a tenure-track position at the Assistant Professor level for candidates with research experience or strong interest in cell/tissue biomechanics (mammalian or plant), nanodevices, bioMEMS/NEMS, nanomechanics/materials/manufacturing/fluidics, biomaterials, and biona­nomechanics. Exceptional candidates could be consid­ered for a higher rank. 

QUALIFICATIONS: 

The American Academy of Mechanics is pleased to announce that
Jacob Fish, the Rosalind and John J. Redfern Chaired Professor of Engineering at
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, and Martin Ostoja-Starzewski, Professor of
Mechanical Science & Engineering at University of Illinois have both been
elected as Fellows of the Academy. They will be presented with certificates
honoring their new status at the first AAM Summer Conference to be held from
