DESCRIPTION:Prof. Nima Arkani-Hamed\, Institute for advanced study\, Princ
 eton\nThis is a singular time in the development of fundamental physics. T
 he triumphs of the 20th century culminated in the understanding that the p
 rinciples of quantum-mechanics and space-time make the structure of the la
 ws of nature inevitable. The challenge of the 21st century is that\, at th
 e deepest level\, these principles are mutually contradictory and naively 
 seem to make the existence of our macroscopic universe impossible. In this
  talk\, I will describe the different avenues that are being pursued to at
 tack these central questions of fundamental physics
