It is often said that we learn by doing, and a recent study by researchers at the University of Chicago has shown that students do indeed gain a deeper understanding of scientific concepts when they experience them in active tasks rather than just reading about them. Make it interactive. Make it interdisciplinary.

Universities generally cover a wide range of subjects, focused on an academic field, say mathematics or computer science. It is important for those spaces to have academic input and research resources, and universities are the best places for quality debate. We should never talk about access to jobs as if we live in an equal world.

But by the end of the 1800s, with the existence of molecules increasingly firmly established, the Second Law began to often be treated as an almost-mathematically-proven necessary law of physics. There were still mathematical loose ends, as well as issues such as its application to living systems and to systems involving gravity.

A nanometre (nm) is a unit of measurement equal to a billionth of a metre, or 0.000001 mm. This realisation inspired the creation of the Center for NanoScience (CeNS), a network of nanoscience research groups in Munich, Germany. A key reason for supporting this collaboration is the diversity of research within the field of nanoscience.

I started a journal and a research center, and collected my papers in a book entitled Theory and Applications of Cellular Automata (later reissued as Cellular Automata and Complexity ). The result was that in late 1986 I started the development of Mathematica (and what’s now the Wolfram Language) and founded Wolfram Research.
