Next Week: The Final Science on Tap of Spring 2026!
Time Isn't Going Anywhere
Not a Journey, but a Perspective

We often conceptualize time as a continuous stream that flows from the past through the present into the future. However, what if this perception is an illusion?
In this talk, Dr. Adlam will discuss how quantum mechanics and relativity suggest we should reject the time-evolution picture. Modern physics suggests that time isn't a journey; it's more like a perspective.

By exploring these concepts, Dr. Adlam aims to illuminate the complexities of time, suggesting that our current frameworks may limit our ability to grasp the deeper realities of existence. The implications of this new understanding could fundamentally reshape not only our scientific inquiries but also our personal reflections on life itself and our place within the cosmos.

With Dr. Emily Adlam
Assistant Professor of Philosophy
Monday, April 13
6 - 7 p.m
