The Trip

So this is my blog, which I am starting to chronicle my adventures in Australia. I got to go down to Oz as part of the National Science Foundation's East Asia Pacific Summer Institute program. Back in December, I submitted a proposal to go to the University of Queensland to study how how suspensions of nanoparticles alter the behavior of fluids in microscale channels. My proposal was accepted, and through the program, NSF covers my plane ticket, stipend, and living expenses for 8 weeks, so it's a very, very good opportunity. Anyway, on this site I will post regular ramblings and photos of what I am up to, with no guarantee of any level of interesting content or relevance. Enjoy.
