The Erwin Schrödinger Lecture is an annual event named after the noted Austrian scientist. Schrödinger was a theoretical physicist and a significant contributor to the wave theory of matter, a form of quantum physics. He mathematically devised an equation of wave mechanics that bears his name. He was a co-recipient of the 1933 Nobel Prize for physics. Today he is popularly known for the paradox of Schrödinger’s cat. Recent speakers at this lecture have included 2012 Physics Nobel Laureate Professor Serge Haroche, College de France, and Dr Elizabeth Blackburn, who won the 2009 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. Other speakers in the 27-year history of the lecture include Professor Sir Paul Nurse, President of the Royal Society and 2001 Nobel Prize in Medicine or Physiology winner, and Professor Stephen Hawking, from the University of Cambridge.
