Title | If Donald Rumsfeld was a scientist... |
Abstract | What do we know about how natural systems work? And do we know what we don't know? This talk will outline briefly some of the challenges understanding complex natural systems, and some ideas on what might be required to tackle such challenges in order to make fundamental advances in natural science in areas of vital societal importance. |
