"Physicist Paul Davies shares his insights on whether the universe can ever be fully knowable, how quantum mechanics reshapes our notion of reality, and why the convergence of quantum physics and AI may challenge everything we know about consciousness, life, and our place in the cosmos. Paul Davies is a Regents' Professor of Physics and Director of the Beyond Center for Fundamental Concepts in Science at Arizona State University.

What are the implications of Einstein’s predictions? Has our understanding of reality integrated the implications of this thinking? His General and Special theories of relativity have completely changed the way we see gravity, energy, mass, space and time, even size - but how? Physicists may find it easy to understand what his ideas mean; like this quote “The distinction between the past, the present and the future is nothing but a stubbornly persistent illusion”.
The Beyond Center’s Pauline Davies (Newman) reports on a dazzling new test of Einstein’s theory of relativity in a recently broadcast radio feature.
The Center’s Pauline Newman (Davies) produced and presented an acclaimed one-hour documentary broadcast in May 2022 on national radio in Australia. It features the life and work of Gregor Mendel, the extraordinary Monk born 200 years ago this July who laid the foundations for the laws of genetics. To listen, use the link below!
