«Experiments in Physics : Hands-on Creative Processes»
Prof. Manfred Euler

University of Kiel, Deutschland
Experiments play a variety of different roles in knowledge generation. The lecture will focus on the function of experiments as engines of intuition that foster insights into complex processes. The experimental presentations consider self-organization phenomena in various domains that range from the nanomechanics of biomolecules to perception and cognition. The inherent universality contributes to elucidating the enigmatic phenomenon of creativity.
Une verrée en compagnie du conférencier sera offerte après le colloque.
