Chaired by Professor Nikolaos Proukakis, Professor of Quantum Physics

In this lecture the speaker will reflect on his own personal scientific journey, from being taught by refugee scholars who fled Nazi Germany, to discoveries in quantum computing and dark matter. From Bose–Einstein condensates to the ethics of AI, he will consider why it matters that scientific talent sees no borders and how a truly open scientific community is critical to all.
