Come venture deep inside the world’s biggest physics machine, the Large Hadron Collider. This extraordinary feat of human engineering took 16 years and $10 billion to build, and just weeks ago began colliding particles at energies unseen since a fraction of a second after the big bang. We’ll explore this amazing apparatus that could soon reveal clues about nature’s fundamental laws and even the origin of the universe itself. John Hockenberry moderates a discussion among physicists including Marcela Carena, Monica Dunford, Jennifer Klay and Nobel laureate Frank Wilczek.

This program is part of The Big Idea Series, made possible with support from the John Templeton Foundation.

The World Science Festival gathers great minds in science and the arts to produce live and digital content that allows a broad general audience to engage with scientific discoveries. Our mission is to cultivate a general public informed by science, inspired by its wonder, convinced of its value, and prepared to engage with its implications for the future.

Online lecture by Dr. Stefano Rizzo, Dr. Mohamad Saad, Dr. Sanjay Chawla.
This is the fourth lecture in the series "AI and Data Science for COVID-19 Data" lecture series by the Qatar Center for Artificial Intelligence.

Epidemiological models are compartmental models that simulate the evolution of infectious disease outbreaks. The results of an epidemic simulation strictly depend on the model’s parameters; biological and others related to demographics and lifestyle.

This lecture will introduce the simplest compartmental models. It will also show how it is possible to extend the traditional SIR model, with the final aim of simulating outbreak scenarios under different policies and country’s specifics.

When epidemiologists are faced with addressing questions that are too difficult, expensive or dangerous to test in the real world, they turn to mathematical modeling. Hear how scientists from the Institute for Disease Modeling are using models to guide global efforts towards the eradication and control of infectious diseases.

This video will cover the some of the things that mathematics and epidemiological models can teach us about disease spread. We’ll first look at some of the most commonly used models, explore some of their useful applications, and finally, verify our findings using both a virtual simulation and statistics for the real world example of measles.

The field of study of chaos has its roots in differential equations and dynamical systems, the very language that is used to describe how any physical system evolves in the real world. This video aims to tell the story of chaos step by step, from simple non-chaotic systems, to different types of attractors, to fractal spaces and the language of unpredictability.
