As Priya Reddy is passionate about dancing, she applied for the dance competition #DanceYourPhD and won first place in the biology category. Congratulations!🎖️

In Jena, the #PhD student is investigating the immune response of the little plant Arabidopsis to bacteria.🌱🦠 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhZEDbWqfAU #DanceYourPhD

Da hat man ja fast Lust, zu promovieren. Nur damit man auch ein so cooles dance video produzieren kann.

🕺 Dance your PhD!
Science communication can be a lot of fun — as recently demonstrated by our grad student Arfor Houwman, who produced a short dance video to explain his PhD topic in #QuantumPhysics. He even won an international award by AAAS and @SciMag for the clip (category #Physics) , so we highly recommend checking it out!

All we've gotta say is: lasers, lasers, lasers - LASERS!

Everyone!

The winner of the #DanceYourPhD comp. (physics) is sooooo worthy!

Great original track (ear worm!), and awesome vid.

Congrats Arfor Houwman, University of Innsbruck: “Collective Phenomena in Ultracold Dipolar Quantum Gases”

Cannot recommend this enough — what a great form of #SciComm
