When struck, objects vibrate, producing sound. While we can hear sounds, vibrations go mostly unnoticed until they become disruptive, interfering … Continue reading Exploring the acoustic nature of objects
Dermot Turing, Alan Turing’s nephew and biographer, will lecture about his uncle’s contributions to early computing and the origins of the machinery approach to intelligence.
The Symposium, cosponsored by the National Academy of Science, brings together emerging science leaders to discuss topics across traditional disciplines. Erlich will be introductory speaker for The Future of Genome Technologies.
Applying the “lens of computation” to the natural, life, and social sciences can result in unexpected insights. This talk describes three examples. It is to be held Monday, Oct. 31, at 11:30 in 750 CEPSR.
