What does Beauty mean to scientists? Why does it matter for the practice of science?
These questions drive the opening plenary session of the Beauty at Work international symposium held at The Catholic University of America, May 26, 2023.
We’re going to share this session with you over the next couple of episodes.
The session opened with remarks from the President of the Catholic University of America, Dr. Peter Kilpatrick. It was followed by a discussion between four scientists: Dr. Robert Gilbert (Professor of Biochemistry, University of Oxford); Dr. Aaron Dominguez (Professor of Physics and Provost, Catholic University of America); and Dr. Massimo Robberto (Space Telescope Science Institute) and Dr. Maria Teresa Landi (National Cancer Institute at NIH) who moderated the conversation.
