The Power of Curiosity: Unlocking the World through Basic Science - Livestream

It is impossible to predict the future applications of curiosity-driven research, but that is what makes it so exciting. Fundamental science done at Berkeley has proven to uncover major discoveries that change the way we see the world - just take CRISPR-Cas9, the laser, and telomerase, for example. Come hear about how the work of a microscopist peering inside brains, a physicist searching for dark matter, and a biologist studying natural killer cells could answer questions we never dreamed of asking in the first place.
