DNA science. Artificial intelligence. Smartphones and 3D printers. Science and technology have transformed the world we live in. But how did we get here? It wasn’t by accident. Well, sometimes it was. It was also the result of hard work, teamwork, and competition. And incredibly surprising moments. Hosted by bestselling author Steven Johnson (“How We Got To Now”), American Innovations uses immersive scenes to tell the stories of the scientists, engineers, and ordinary people behind the great ...

We humans could have a bright future ahead of us that lasts billions of years. But we have to survive the next 200 years first. Join Josh Clark of Stuff You Should Know for a 10-episode deep dive that explores the future of humanity and finds dangers we have never encountered before lurking just ahead. And if we humans are alone in the universe, if we don't survive intelligent life dies out with us too.

This podcast explores the extraordinary life of the Pakistani physicist Abdus Salam, who is celebrated for his ground-breaking theoretical work and for his championing of physics and physicists in developing countries.
In 1964, he founded the Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) in Trieste, Italy – which supports research excellence worldwide with a focus on physicists in the developing world. In 1979 Salam shared the Nobel Prize for Physics for his work on the unification of the weak and electromagnetic interactions.
Salam spent most of his career at Imperial College London and the university is gearing up to celebrate the centenary of his birth in January 2026. In this episode of the Physics World Weekly podcast, Imperial physicists Claudia de Rham and Ian Walmsley look back on the extraordinary life of Salam – who died in 1996. They also talk about the celebrations at Imperial College.
