An Academic’s Struggle to Reconcile Jewish Heritage with Scientific Theory. Is man’s origin from an ape or from Adam? How old exactly is our world? These are a few of the issues that appear to pit modern scientific theory against traditional Jewish belief. Join us for an incredible evening with award-winning lecturer and Professor of Chemistry Dr. Binyomin Abrams as he takes us on a personal journey of self-discovery and bridges the gap between the seemingly conflicting worlds of science and Judaism. About Dr. Binyomin Abrams Dr. Binyomin Abrams is a senior Professor of Chemical Education and Theoretical Physical Chemistry at Boston University, and recipient of the 2015 Metcalf Award for Excellence in Teaching.
