A few months ago, I had the pleasure of interviewing the Nobel Laureate, Barry Barish, for UCTV. Barry is an experimental physicist and a professor at UC Riverside. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics along with Rainer Weiss and Kip Thorne for decisive contributions to the LIGO detector and the observation of gravitational waves.
In our interview, Barry reflects on his life in science, being curious, experiencing imposter syndrome, and working in the field of physics. Tune in!
Key Takeaways:
Intro (00:00)
How to get over impostor syndrome (00:40)
Exploring curiosity (06:34)
The art of science (11:08)
The probability of a quantum theory of gravity (21:36)
Would Barry visit a black hole? (26:12)
Barry’s origin story (30:53)
Could we make an AI physicist? (42:19)
Outro (46:12)
