Title : Physics World and the top 10 physics breakthroughs of 2011
Date : Friday, September 14, 2012
Time : 4pm
Venue : Main Lecture Theatre (AG-66), TIFR, Homi Bhabha Road, Colaba, Mumbai
ABSTRACT: Physics World seeks to reflect and report on the events, issues and personalities in the global physics community -- and to do so in a timely, accessible, accurate and entertaining way through our magazine, website, and audio and video content. Since 2009, we have each year selected our top 10 physics breakthroughs of the previous 12 months and this talk will review our choice of the top 10 breakthroughs of 2011. In explaining why we made our selection, I will also discuss the role of science journalists and the challenges they face in the modern age of the Internet and instant communication.
SPEAKER'S PROFILE: Dr Matin Durrani has been editor of Physics World since March 2006. He graduated with a degree in chemical physics from Bristol University, UK, and did a PhD in polymer physics at the Cavendish Laboratory, University of Cambridge, UK. After two years as a postdoc at the Cavendish, he joined Physics World in 1994.
