Geodesy is the science of measuring the Earth’s shape, gravity field, and rotation. What if we could make it exciting, fun, and easy for everyone to understand? That’s exactly why the International Association of Geodesy (IAG) and its Global Geodetic Observing System (GGOS) launched the Geodesy Cartoons initiative: to bring geodesy closer to the public through visually engaging and humorous illust ...[Read More]
As we passed the town of Saint-Gervais-Les-Bains on the French highway, en route to a sampling campaign, Mont Blanc’s glaciated terrain suddenly emerged above the spring foliage. Breaking the silent awe, Patrick remarked that indeed, “Mont Blanc is still there.” The humor won’t be lost on anyone familiar with the massif. Its unquestionable, human-minimizing presence colours the regions’ cultural a ...[Read More]

Artificial intelligence (AI) has been here a while, and it isn’t going anywhere, not any time soon. It has become an integral part of many lives and businesses. When I speak of AI, I am not referring to GenAI (generative AI) that writes your emails for you: Think about the algorithms that suggest what movie you should watch next, the voice assistant that adds milk to your shopping list, and ...[Read More]
Self-guilt is a common feeling among PhD students. It often leads us to devalue ourselves more harshly than is fair and to form unrealistic expectations. It is important to understand how it shows up in our daily work, what fuels it, and how we can resist it — because over time, it can quietly undermine both our well-being and our work. The ideas below are the results of group discussions that hav ...[Read More]
