Abstract: Theoretical physics is the search for compelling mathematical descriptions of the world around us, and it has been extraordinarily successful. We have discovered the equations that govern the flow of electrons in a computer chip and the flow of air over an airplane wing, we can describe what happens deep inside the atomic nucleus and the evolution of the universe on the largest scales. But what about us? Can we imagine writing equations that describe how our brain makes decisions, or how a single cell develops into a complex organism? Creating a “physics of life” is a daunting task, but there has been exciting progress.
Pedimos desculpa a todos os que assistiram a live, pois não conseguimos responder as perguntas que foram feitas durante o evento, mas estamos procurando uma forma de faze-las nas próximas lives, obrigado
