I felt like I really got some momentum back in my research. A little late but a few highlights:
-
Restarted DFT calculations and getting into computational condensed matter
-
Started a Topological Order Reading Group with Kai and other friends in my year
-
Got to know my mentors and got closer to other research group members.
-
Decided to stick with James for my Phd
-
Finished up being a TA for Physics 141A: Solid State physics with Joe Orenstein
Started using Notion.so to hold my notes. It’s great and Berkeley gives me a Pro subscription for free.
On another note, I want to post more on this site with physics, literature, and taiko stuff. Especially when I’m trapped in quarentine with COVID!
