Quantum Physics Simplified: Insights from Dr. Michael Davis 🎓

YC Library's Distinguished Guest Lecture Series, March 28, 2019

Take no offense, no one understands Quantum Physics! This is because of the fact that subatomic particles can be in two places at once (superposition), react faster than the speed of light even when separated (entanglement), and alter their behavior when looked at (observer effect). Sounds crazy, doesn't it? This has led to speculation about consciousness, multidimensionality and parallel universes, to name just a few. Come hear an irreverent presentation of these concepts and learn that things are not as they seem.
