Greetings!

I have this friend who had synthesis of nanomaterials as his MS thesis. After talking with him, I realized that his passion is on helping the farmers in the agriculture industry. I want to help him find a research group or professor (for his Phd) in which he can apply what he already does (i.e. nanomaterials) into his advocacy or passion (i.e. helping the farmers/agriculture). Do you know any institution who is into this kind of research? Thank you very much.

If you have any interest in Canadian universities, the University of Guelph does this type of research.
 
Thanks for your reply! Sorry for the late reply. Just had connection with the internet. I will check this university. Thanks again. :)
 
It would appear that this group at U. Guelph in particular is pretty much exactly what your friend is looking for. Note also that Guelph. You might also want to look at nanotechnology at the nearby University of Waterloo, who collaborate closely with Guelph in their physics program.

Thank you LastOneStanding! I have trouble navigating through the website of U. Guelph. Thanks for your help... I really want to encourage him to take his Ph. D. :)
 
Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...
Yesterday, 9/5/2025, when I was surfing, I found an article The Schwarzschild solution contains three problems, which can be easily solved - Journal of King Saud University - Science ABUNDANCE ESTIMATION IN AN ARID ENVIRONMENT https://jksus.org/the-schwarzschild-solution-contains-three-problems-which-can-be-easily-solved/ that has the derivation of a line element as a corrected version of the Schwarzschild solution to Einstein’s field equation.
