Visions for the Future of Physics

On Wednesday May 14, 2025 I’ll be giving a talk at 2 pm Pacific Time, or 10 pm UK time. The talk is for physics students at the Universidade de São Paulo in Brazil, organized by Artur Renato Baptista Boyago.

Visions for the Future of Physics

Abstract. The 20th century was the century of fundamental physics. What about the 21st? Progress on fundamental physics has been slow since about 1980, but there is exciting progress in other fields, such as condensed matter. This requires an adjustment in how we think about the goal of physics.
