Unearthed notebooks shed light on Victorian genius who inspired Einstein Michael Faraday’s illustrated notes that show how radical scientist began his theories at London’s Royal Institution to go online

Who is your favorite scientist? For me Michael #Faraday would be a top contender. Now his notebooks, which are both legendary and little known, will be digitized & published by the #RoyalInstitution. www.theguardian.com/science/2025...

CERN particle physicist, Harry Cliff, delivers a talk on from Faraday's desk in the lecture theatre of the Royal Institution in London on 27 March 2024.

My view of #CERN particle physicist, Harry Cliff, during his talk at the #RoyalInstitution in London last night. A really illuminating lecture on the role anomalies have played in scientific breakthroughs and discoveries. Fantastically accessible. (Even for those of us who failed science at school.)
