It will also be uploaded to YouTube in the future. SUMMARY: In this electrifying talk, award-winning physicist Paul Davies will guide us through the puzzles and paradoxes that have preoccupied cosmologists from ancient Greece to the present day. Laying bare the audacious research that has led us to mind-bending solutions, Davies will reveal how we might begin to approach the greatest outstanding enigmas of all. Copies of Paul Davies's latest book 'What's eating the Universe?' are available from amazon and all good bookshops. SPEAKER: For several years he has also been running a major cancer research project, and developed a new theory of cancer based on tracing its deep evolutionary origins. Among his many awards are the 1995 Templeton Prize, the Faraday Prize from The Royal Society, the Kelvin Medal and Prize from the Institute of Physics, the Robinson Cosmology Prize and the Bicentenary Medal of Chile. He was made a member of the Order of Australia in the 2007 Queen's birthday honours list and the asteroid 6870 Pauldavies is named after him.
