How did you find PF?
I found Physics Forums through a Google search.
Hi Everyone,

My name is Jon DeSousa and I live in Southern New Hampshire. My background is in engineering, and I am a Director of Engineering at Ingersoll Rand; however, one of my side passions is physics. Understanding more about how our world works and how one can model physical phenomena to predict and optimize designs for maximum performance. I also have a desire to learn more outside of classical mechanics in the realm of the very large and very small to better understand how we believe the universe works.

Looking forward to learning from you all!

Jon

Welcome to PF, Jon. It's good to have you here. :smile:

By any chance do you have some experience with microfludics? If so, a pretty specialized question was posted yesterday that you might be able to help with: https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/how-do-you-fabricate-microfluidic-chips-in-your-lab.1081129/

:smile:
Great question! I am in the fluidics space though my team produces pumps that are used in microfluidic devices. Sadly we don't directly produce the chips which are commonly fabricated using mems or other lithography technologies. We work with customers who use those components but don't have that expertise in house.

I'll definitely follow the thread as it's a very interesting topic for me!

Thread 'Retired high school physics teacher'

I began teaching high school math and physics after graduating LSU in 1975. I taught in public, Catholic, and prep schools for about 30 years. During my career, computers entered the schools for the first time and I became deeply involved. For a while I wrote educational software through my own company. After I retired from teaching I continued online tutoring for a few years. I am now using my last few years creating the Physics Teacher's Tool Box, a resource culled from my long career.

Thread 'Just a physics enthusiast'

Hi everyone, I'm just a physics enthusiast. I took some first-year courses a long time ago, but I wasn't able to continue, so I don't have a degree. Still, I'm really passionate about the subject and try to keep up with it as much as I can. I mostly study in my (limited) free time, going through books I didn’t get the chance to read when I was younger. Thanks for your attention!
