Today, robots battled in Millikan Pond. Students in the ME 72 course spend a term building robots, and the competition is the culmination of their efforts. The winning team takes the trophy and the high grade!

Have you been noticing the butterflies? 🦋🦋🦋 Graduate student Eric Liaw suspects #Caltech may be in the path of migrating Painted Ladies (Vanessa cardui) this year!

“On social media, I see a lot of headshots of scientists, but I just don't relate to headshots! Do scientists get dressed up in a suit each day and smile? That's not what science is. Science is being in the lab running a column, being out in the field collecting rocks, going on a boat, working on your computer doing models—and I think that kind of representation is missing from social media. When I looked for an Instagram account posting action photos of women doing all sorts of things in science, there wasn't a single one. So, I thought maybe I should just make one—so I did! When I started last June, I thought if I reach 1,000 followers, I would be proud. Now we have over 30,000, which is kind of amazing. And the cutest thing is that my dad still ‘likes’ every single picture. He’s our biggest fan.” Alex Phillips, a fourth-year geochemistry student, is the founder and curator of the @women.doing.science Instagram account. #SoCaltech is an occasional series celebrating the diverse individuals who give Caltech its spirit of excellence, ambition, and ingenuity.
