Tiny Titans: Molecules, Particles & Quantum Magic

Did you know your body has built-in emergency responders that stop you from passing out when your blood sugar drops? In this fun talk, we’ll explore how tiny molecules act like superheroes, keeping your energy levels in check. Watch live demonstrations of how scientists create smarter medicines and discover why sugar isn’t always sweet! Perfect for anyone curious about the hidden science inside us—no lab coat required!

Quantum gravity is one of the biggest open questions in modern physics. It describes how the smallest particles interact with gravity. In this talk Jacob will outline one method of connecting quantum mechanics (the small/particles) with general relativity (the big/gravity).

Ever wanted to be in two places at once? Or disappear and reappear somewhere else? Impossible – right? Not for quantum particles. But we’re made of quantum particles, so why can’t we? Imad explores how we can harness these extraordinary quantum phenomena, e.g., superposition and entanglement, to build radically new technologies such as the quantum internet – an advanced communication network providing unbreakable security, teleportation and sensing and computation beyond imagination.
