Abstract: Quantum theory and black holes have fascinated me for decades. In this talk I will offer reflections on my academic journey so far, weaving together theoretical physics explanations with observations on inclusivity informed by lived experience of sexism, ableism,and transphobia. All are welcome; no prior knowledge of physics will be assumed.

Speaker: Dr. A.W. Peet, University of Toronto
