Explore fundamental scientific principles and their interconnected nature across different length scales in this public lecture by renowned mathematical physicist Nathan Seiberg from the Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton. Delve into the bidirectional approach of scientific progress, examining how discoveries at microscopic levels influence our understanding of larger-scale phenomena and vice versa. Learn about various examples from different scientific disciplines that demonstrate this relationship, and understand how string theory might revolutionize this traditional two-way approach. Benefit from Seiberg's extensive expertise in string theory, quantum field theory, particle physics, and condensed matter physics, as he shares insights from his award-winning research, including breakthrough work on electric-magnetic duality in quantum field theories and recent explorations of dualities, symmetries, and anomalies in condensed matter systems.
