Abstract:

These are extraordinary times for science.

We are learning to manipulate matter at the molecular scale. The sequencing of the human genome, a landmark achievement, is providing a foundation from which to explore the most basic mechanisms of life. Computation has become a true third pillar of scientific discovery, complementing theory and experiment and providing insights into systems of otherwise impenetrable complexity. And we are probing the very structure of matter and the beginning of time.
