We had to step away for a while to take care of both personal and professional stuff. Apparently, Life, the Universe and Everything occasionally requires paperwork.
But… we’re back!
And we’re now actively looking for speakers for the Spring 2027 edition of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to Rheology.
Are you a student or postdoc hopelessly lost in the strange realm of rheology?
Are you a young professor or researcher shamelessly seeking visibility? Perfect. So are we.
Do you want to give your supervisor one more thing to do that they cannot really refuse without looking bad?
Have you read a paper recently and thought, “This is interesting, but I’d much rather make the author explain it to me live”?
Do you know someone doing absurdly cool rheology who deserves attention?
Do you want to know how to spread chocolate cream on bread with the scientific precision this problem clearly deserves?
Your name. Your colleague’s name. Your supervisor’s name. Your academic nemesis’ name. That person whose papers you keep citing even though you have never actually understood Figure 4.
Self-promotion is allowed. Nepotism is encouraged. Scientific quality remains, regrettably, compulsory.
We’re putting together the Spring 2027 program, so send us your suggestions.
In the meantime, as always: Don’t panic. And prepare your towel.
