Public Lecture: The Universe in a Box - Andrew Pontzen
Abstract – Merging black holes, collapsing dark matter, giant supernova explosions: a tapestry of cosmic events stretching over the past 13.8 billion years have shaped our existence in a vast universe. Faced with this complexity, humanity has increasingly turned to computers to help extract a clear… -
Does Anything Ever Come Out of a Black Hole? - Netta Engelhardt
Stephen Hawking made a number of memorable contributions to physics, but perhaps his greatest was a puzzle: is information that falls into a black hole destroyed, in contradiction with the laws of quantum mechanics? The question sits squarely at the overlap of the quantum world and gravitation, a… -
Battle of the Big Bang: The New Tales of Our Cosmic Origins
Niayesh Afshordi - University of Waterloo & Perimeter Institute
Title Battle of the Big Bang: The New Tales of Our Cosmic Origins Abstract The story of the universe’s origins is one of the greatest mysteries in science. From the explosive birth of the cosmos to the enigmatic nature of time and space, we are continually challenged by paradoxes that defy current… -
Quantum Chemistry in the Universe’s Coldest Test Tube
Alan Jamison - Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC)
Abstract How do chemical reactions change when they’re run at temperatures a billion times colder than a Canadian winter? What can we learn when we have perfect quantum control of the reactants? Before answering these questions, we’ll discuss the fascinating techniques of laser cooling that allow us… -

TRuST Scholarly Network’s Conversations on Artificial Intelligence: Should It Be Trusted?
Donna Strickland - University of Waterloo
Artificial Intelligence and big data are dramatically transforming the way we work, live and connect. Innovators have begun designing AI solutions to advance society at a rapid pace, but often new technologies bring both promise and risk. How can we trust AI and safeguard society from unintended…
