Two Scientists Share Stories of Awe & Wonder | Sethupathy & Hecht

In today’s episode, two scientists with different spiritual worldviews explore this question: How can science and spirituality co-exist?   You’ll hear from Praveen Sethupathy, a genomics professor at Cornell, and Michael Hecht, a chemistry professor at Princeton. In this conversation, they explore what science and spirituality can learn from one another and how they experience wonder in their research.   This virtual forum was held at Princeton in May 2021.
