V fiziki smo bili priča rojstvu splošne teorije relativnosti, kvantne mehanike in prvim poskusom ustvarjanja teorije velikega poenotenja. Za vse je značilna globoka prežetost z matematiko. Izum tranzistorja je sprožil nesluteni tehnološki razvoj, ki je prispeval k blaginji družbe, v biologiji pa začenjamo razumeti osnovne mehanizme življenja in Darvinove evolucije. Z uporabo matematike in novih tehnologij postaja biologija veda, kjer vse bolj izstopajo velikanske količine podatkov, ki jih je potrebno obravnavati, kar nam omogoča boljše razumevanje zdravja in bolezni. Dandanes začenjamo tudi sami ustvarjati življenje in žive organizme. Predavanje bo sledilo trem pogledom v prihodnost, prvi govori o tem, da bomo nekega dne zares dojeli učinkovitost matematike in fizike, drugi se nanaša na to, da bomo nekega dne mogli zasnovati in zgraditi življenje od začetka, ter tretji, da bomo nekega dne lahko ustvarili umetne možgane z lastno zavestjo.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;margin-bottom:12.0pt;text-align:justify'>Predavanje bo v angleščini.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;margin-bottom:12.0pt'><strong><span style='color:red'>Lepo vabljeni!<o:p></o:p></span></strong></p><p class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black'>*****<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;mso-fareast-language:SL'><br clear=all style='page-break-before:always'></span><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'>We invite you to the 10th Institute colloquium in the academic year 2018/19.

We witnessed the birth of the theories of general relativity, quantum mechanics and the first attempts to design a Grand Unifying Theory, each of them deeply rooted in a ‘quasi-platonic’ belief in the consistency of mathematics. The invention of the transistor triggered an exponential proliferation of technology that has been tremendously beneficial for society. Similarly, in biology, we start understanding the basic mechanisms of life and its Darwinian evolution. Through mathematics and technology, biology has become an information driven discipline facing a tsunami of data, providing us with a better understanding of health and disease. Gradually, we start designing life and living organisms. In this talk, I will explore three utopian visions. 1. One day, we will truly ‘understand’ the unreasonable effectiveness of mathematics in physics. 2. One day, we will design and build life from scratch. 3. One day, we will build artificial brains with emerging consciousness.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Cordially invited!<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;mso-fareast-language:EN-US'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div></body></html>
