Sean Carroll
Theoretical Physicist, Author & Homewood Professor of Natural Philosophy at John Hopkins University; Host of the Podcast "Mindscape" & "The Biggest Ideas in the Universe" YouTube Series
Sean M. Carroll is the Homewood Professor of Natural Philosophy at Johns Hopkins University and a recognized figure in the field of natural philosophy. His wide body of work includes authorship of popular science books such as "From Eternity to Here," "The Particle at the End of the Universe," "The Big Picture: On the Origins of Life, Meaning, and the Universe Itself," and "Something Deeply Hidden." As a testament to his expertise and communication skills, Carroll was awarded the Andrew Gemant Award in 2014 and a Guggenheim Fellowship in 2015. He has also made substantial contributions to the entertainment industry as a consultant for films like "Avengers: Endgame" and "Thor: The Dark World," and as a voice actor in the movie "Earth to Echo."
Carroll's propensity for communicating complex ideas extends beyond written work and into the realm of digital media. In 2018, he launched his podcast, "Mindscape," where he engages in insightful conversations with experts from various disciplines. His YouTube video series, "The Biggest Ideas in the Universe," has been widely received, leading to its adaptation into a book series in September 2022. He's no stranger to television either, having made appearances on programs such as The History Channel's "The Universe," Science Channel's "Through the Wormhole with Morgan Freeman," and Comedy Central's "The Colbert Report."
Carroll's ability to engage in thoughtful and enlightening discussions is further exemplified by his participation in a variety of public dialogues and debates. He has explored topics such as the existence of God, the nature of reality, and contemporary cosmology in forums like the Greer-Heard Forum and the Intelligence Squared debate. His public speaking engagements have spanned across a range of venues, including the Gifford Lectures at the University of Glasgow, the Freedom From Religion Foundation Annual National Convention, and various media and public speaking outlets.
