Is gravity really a force? In Newton’s picture, gravity is an attractive force. But Einstein changed the story 🧵 1/8

This person on Twitter is taking my threads and posts and presenting them verbatim as his own.
Recorded a podcast with @danielwhiteson.bsky.social and we talked about his New Book “Do Aliens speak Physics?” (Available November 4th) Stay tuned for a great conversation! @bhavaytyagi.bsky.social
Physics isn’t subjective. Your personal opinion of someone, whether you dislike or admire them, should have zero influence on how you evaluate their research.

Had the pleasure of spending this afternoon talking about cosmology, my journey here to Duke, and more with the wonderful hosts of the KnowmadsPodcast. 🎙️ Follow them to catch their episodes—my recording will be up soon and I’ll share it here! TY for having me!

Recorded an episode of The Knowmads Podcast with Eve Vavagiakis @evevavagiakis.bsky.social , Experimental Cosmologist from Duke University. It was one of the most refreshing conversations ever! We (@bhavaytyagi.bsky.social and I) can’t wait to share it with y’all.

What amazes me is that the most famous realist interpretation of quantum mechanics, Many Worlds, came from Everett, whose only published contribution was his PhD thesis.
A PhD in physics goes beyond completing assigned tasks. It means questioning the foundations, reading papers to trace derivations, identifying open problems, and developing the physical intuition to connect formalisms with real phenomena, the kind that keeps you up at night.

Proud of my students who presented their work at the @apsphysics.bsky.social Global Physics summit this week! They all did a great job, and enjoyed their experience too!
Went for Puppy Yoga yesterday, 10/10 would recommend. For those who don’t know the concept, there’s a puppy who teaches yoga. Idk who taught him yoga but he apparently just kept doing the ‘downward facing dog’ 🤷♀️
My advisor @claudiaratti.bsky.social brought koalaches and donuts to our group meeting to celebrate my win and the @uh.edu Research Day. 🥹🫶🏼
Presented my work on Quantum Chromodynamics equation of state from Holographic and Hadronic Physics for the @uh.edu Research Day 2025 and received the second prize for the best presentation!
I spent the afternoon at work today, to attend the Physics Department research day. Lots of great talks and posters, here are the winners in the different categories. Among them, my students @prachigarella.bsky.social and Gabe Frohaug. Congratulations!
