In 2022, I had the honor of delivering the commencement address at Brown University.

I used this incredible opportunity to talk about a personal hero of mine: Galileo Galilei. Galileo was a scientist like no other. He boldly challenged the status quo through his discoveries and relentlessly pursued the truth, even when persecuted for doing so. His journey offers timeless lessons for scientists today, especially for graduate students who will shape the future of science.

My goal with this lecture was to inspire the next generation of thinkers, and I hope it does the same for you.

Tune in to learn more about how Galileo set the gold standard for scientists.

Key Takeaways:

  • 00:00:00 Intro
  • 00:02:06 My early days at Brown University
  • 00:08:08 Galileo’s legacy
  • 00:24:18 Losing the Nobel Prize
  • 00:40:48 Interstellar dust and mistakes
  • 00:46:48 My motto
  • 00:48:29 Audience questions
  • 01:03:39 Outro
