This lecture from The Royal Institution features quantum physicist Vlatko Vedral exploring the Universe through the lens of information theory. Delve into profound quantum questions as Vedral explains how information forms the foundation of reality, from the patterns that constitute our physical bodies to the digital code of DNA. Learn about entropy, thermodynamics, and quantum phenomena like entanglement—what Einstein called "spooky action at a distance." Discover cutting-edge research on quantum computing and recent evidence suggesting quantum effects may extend beyond subatomic scales into the macro world. Presented by Professor Vedral, a distinguished researcher with over 500 published papers and recipient of the Royal Society Wolfson Research Merit Award, who currently serves as Professor of Quantum Information Science at the University of Oxford.
