Talk: "The Future Prospects of Science" with Martin Gruebele

Speaker: Martin Gruebele, Center for Advanced Study Professor of Chemistry, James R. Eiszner Endowed Chair in Chemistry

Science and Engineering can find solutions to problems large and small—and the solution always comes with unexpected consequences, hopefully with solutions of their own. Professor Gruebele will discuss a few topics of current interest, ranging from specialization in science, to grand discoveries waiting to happen, to how making and using fossil fuels better is a big part of the equation, or the fundamental-applied pendulum that is currently swinging ‘applied.'

Reception to follow.
