Singing Gorilla Projects is a remarkable organisation dedicated to making a positive impact in the Kisoro district of Uganda, home to the majestic Mountain Gorilla. 🦍 🌿

Through its incredible initiatives, SGP has been instrumental in bringing about significant change - setting up a music school, installing over 50 water tanks, and sponsoring children to continue their schooling.

As the community of actors involved in collaborative modes of boundary-crossing research & practice continues to grow here, I would like to share some information about the *ITD Alliance* that I think may be of interest in this area.

Hello! As I’m new both to #Mastodon and to the #QOTO instance, I’d like to make my #introductions here.

I’m Dom, a postgraduate researcher studying #CondensedMatter, in particular #SoftMatter, #ActiveMatter, #MolecularBiology, #CellBiology, #PhaseTransitions, and #ComplexSystems using the tools of #TheoreticalPhysics, #BioPhysics, #StatisticalPhysics, #FluidDynamics, #ComputationalPhysics, and #Simulation.

I’m working on a few projects at the moment. One addresses #universality in active #turbulence with #spectral techniques. Another predicts a new microphase separation regime in inhomogeneous active #nematics by simulating the coupled #CahnHilliard, #NavierStokes, and #BerisEdwards equations. In another project I’m developing a #FieldTheory of the #orderphobic effect, a nonspecific interaction between #transmembrane bodies anchored in a #lipid #bilayer.
