Earlier this summer, I talked about the blog and the book on the phone with somebody from the APS, providing material for a profile of me that was posted yesterday on Physics Central. It’s pretty good, but it’s still a little strange to see my name and picture on their profile index with some of the other names there– I don’t really think of myself as being in the same category as Margaret Murnane or Mildred Dresselhaus, who are really amazing scientists.
So, it’s very flattering to see this up there. It would also probably be a useful reference for anybody who would like to update my stub of a Wikipedia page (I’d do it myself, but I’m told that’s frowned upon). This list of publications might also be useful.
I’m reading through Dresselhaus, Dresselhaus, and Jorio and have to say if there some way of joining a Dresselhaus fan club, I’d be there. 🙂
