Join us for our first in-person conversation with Dr. Brian Keating, a distinguished UCSD cosmologist, as we navigate the intricate landscape of scientific epistemology and reward circuits. Our discussion unpacks the complexities of scientific truth, exploring its intersections with faith and unveiling the mysteries of cosmic origins. With Dr. Keating we tap into profound insights on the scientific method, reflects on paradigm shifts, and discuss the spiritual dimensions within scientific theories. This exploration challenges beliefs and encourages you to navigate the squishy truths that inscribe our scientific understanding of the universe.
