#SFUPhysics researchers have created a protein-based motor, but how does it work? Chapin Korosec and Nancy Forde explain "the Lawnmower" on #CBC Vancouver.

How does gravity influence antimatter? 💫

In a world first, #SFUPhysics distinguished professor Mike Hayden and a team of international researchers succeeded in directly observing what happens to #antimatter when it interacts with #gravity: https://ow.ly/JFzv50QIoYT #SFUScience #SFU #physics #ATLASExperiment #CERN

A collaboration led by #SFUPhysics researchers Chapin Korosec and Nancy Forde has created the first synthetic protein-based motor that moves like a Roomba and uses biological reactions to fuel itself. Their work adds to our understanding how molecular motors work in nature, and how they might be used in the future for medical applications.

Meet #SFUPhysics professor Gopi Mohlabeng! His work aims to solve some fundamental puzzles particle physics cannot explain, like what #darkmatter and #darkenergy are made of, and why there is more matter than anti-matter in the universe.
