Brian Keating is a Chancellor’s Distinguished Professor of physics at the University of California, San Diego’s Center for Astrophysics & Space Sciences (CASS). An expert in cosmic microwave background (CMB) research, he delves into understanding the universe’s origin and evolution. Beyond academia, Brian is a renowned public speaker, inventor, writer, podcaster, and author of the best-selling book, “Losing the Nobel Prize“, which ranks among Amazon Editors’ “Best Non-fiction Books of All Time”.
Keating envisions an educational model where one can learn from the brightest minds without traditional barriers like tuition or location. Frustrated by science content that either oversimplifies or mystifies complex concepts, he’s committed to breaking this mold. With his vast experience in education, both as a student and a professor, he champions an engaging and insightful approach to science.
