About the author

My core value is realistic education—learning from each other’s errors and successes, but with full awareness of the difference between elegant models (science) and our ability not only to minimize surprises but also to build a different future (engineering).

Running research experiments, I do enjoy the comfort of the outcomes that confirm my expertise, but I learn the most from experiments with surprising outcomes. Trying is the only way to benefit from uncertainty, and I am doing it for a living. I am aware of the stigma that people attach to the trial-and-error method, but I can see that everything in nature evolves by trial and error—from the physical processes that create order out of quantum chaos, through evolution in biology, to how humans learn and think.
