Dr. Mike Brownnutt obtained his first master’s degree (MSc in physics) and his PhD (in experimental quantum mechanics) from Imperial College London, then moved to Innsbruck, Austria, to develop scalable architectures for quantum computers. He completed his second master’s degree (MA in theology from the University of Chester) considering how “faith” is understood in discussions about Christianity and science. He is now Associate Director of the Faith and Science Collaborative Research Forum, based at HKU.
Brownnutt’s work consistently places him at the boundaries between disciplines. From this odd vantage, he shares perspectives on how scientists see themselves, how they understand their own work, and how you should understand it.
