Series Details

About

Does free will exist❓ Can we predict the future❓ Could math be wrong❓ Are humans evolving❓ Is our reality arbitrary❓ In these sessions, we will go over the science that relates to deep questions about life. These will be instructional 👨‍🏫 but also discussion/conversation-based 🗣️. We will share points of view and work together to (try to) understand our world!

Tutor Qualifications

I have been studying physics, biology, and chemistry for six years now, at school and university levels.

I am a gold medalist in the Brazilian National Sciences Olympiad and in the Astronomy and Astronautics Olympiad. I'm also an honors medalist in the Brazilian Physics Olympiad.

I'm passionate about connecting fields in science and trying to figure out how these intersections reveal the workings of life.

I'm not a physicist!! I'm just a guy who is curious about the field and wants to get people engaged on topics surrounding it!
