...coming from the different background of Iran,” he said. Vafa described the work in string theory for which he was elected as, “an area of physics that attempts to explain the fundamental laws of nature and the only theory we know of where quantum theory and gravity can coexist in a mathematically consistent framework.” Alfred L. Goldberg, professor of cell biology at Harvard Medical School, was elected into the Academy for 30 years of research on protein breakdown in cells. “We have discovered a structure in cells called...
Renowned for having created the field of quantum optics in 1963, Glauber is honored “for his contribution to the quantum theory of optical coherence,” according to a press release from the academy...
Glauber, who was invited to Los Alamos to work on the Manhattan Project while attending Harvard, said his work on quantum optics stemmed from earlier experiments in optics that rarely applied quantum theory...
...keeping them ignorant. Except that there is no significant scientific controversy. ID proponents are correct in maintaining that there are legitimate scientists - a relatively tiny handful - who maintain that evolution is bogus science. But you can also find an equivalent handful of legitimate scientists ready to challenge relativity, or quantum physics, or the idea that HIV causes AIDS, or pretty much any widely accepted idea in modern science. A handful of doubters does not a controversy make...
...have to rerun the Scopes "monkey trial"? There are gaps in science everywhere. Are we to fill them all with divinity? There were gaps in Newton's universe. They were ultimately filled by Einstein's revisions. There are gaps in Einstein's universe, great chasms between it and quantum theory. Perhaps they are filled by God. Perhaps not. But it is certainly not science to merely declare...
