Thinking matters
Arts and humanities for public good
We're at a key moment in the transformation of our knowledge economy. Arts and humanities help ensure that science and innovation remain human-centered, responsible, and beneficial to society as a whole. Innovation and tradition are utterly inseparable parts of the human spirit. That is the basis of our creativity and our future.

Science is an activity which straddles boundaries of nationality and faith. I have been privileged to be part of this international community trying to understand the world and what has been learned about the universe in the last 50 years will be one of the real high points, along with the double helix and genetics and Darwinian evolution. What is wonderful is the interconnectedness of everything and how this intricate complexity has emerged from simple beginnings many billions of years ago.
