This is really so fascinating... My field is astrophysics, so I'm not really an expert in particle physics or quantum mechanics for that matter * but i find this particular frontier fascinating. There is just this shred of mystery between the infinitesimally small and the infinitely big that we can't just seem to grasp. I think that when we do, the consequences will reach farther than we think !
As i write this, i am painfully aware of my female socialization. Would a man with a PhD in physics start his post saying: "oh but I'm not really an expert" . What bullshit.

I love that you caught yourself, sister- I am in the mood today, if you had not, I would have. What an impressive thing, to be a woman with a PhD in astrophysics!
You are brilliant, and have a backbone (all of us science sisters do, yes.), and are an authority to me: your post helped me understand the article better than I would have. Thank you.
Please have belief in yourself, it is armor among the men.
Welcome to /o/STEM! This circle is dedicated to science, technology, engineering, maths, and medicine, where you can discuss all things STEM, seek career advice, share learning resources, and pose “ask an expert” questions to the Ovarit STEM community.
Please provide a descriptive title for your posts and add a flair that best describes your post topic. We encourage posters to add links to relevant articles or research papers in their posts and comments.
Since our focus is on STEM, posts should not be focused on politics, ethics, or philosophy. Any discussion on popular science or medicine (to include COVID-19) must be based on scientific principles and research.
This is also not the place to discuss diet, lifestyle, alternative medicine, or psychology. For these topics please check out o/women which is a general discussion circle and o/womenshealthlounge which is a support sub for health issues.

You're so kind! Thank you! Cheers for all of us, science sisters!
