In his acclaimed latest book, The Primacy of Doubt: From Quantum Physics to Climate Change, How the Science of Uncertainty Can Help Us Understand Our Chaotic World, Professor Timothy Palmer argues that embracing the mathematics of uncertainty is vital to understanding ourselves and the universe around us. Whether we want to predict climate change or market crashes, understand how the brain is able to outpace supercomputers or find a theory that links quantum and cosmological physics, Palmer shows how his vision of mathematical uncertainty provides new insights into some of the deepest problems in science. The result is a revolution—one that shows that power begins by embracing what we don't know. The Primacy of Doubt on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Primacy-Doubt-Quantum-Uncertainty-Understand/dp/1541619714 Timothy Palmer is the Royal Society Research Professor in Climate Physics, and a Senior Fellow at the Oxford Martin Institute at the University of Oxford. He is a mathematical physicist who has spent most of his career working on the dynamics and predictability of weather and climate. He pioneered the development of probabilistic ensemble forecasting techniques for weather and climate prediction, techniques that are now standard in weather and climate forecasting around the world. In 2021 Professor Palmer was awarded an honorary fellowship of the Institute of Physics. Professor Palmer was involved in the first five IPCC assessment reports, and was co-chair of the international scientific steering group of the World Climate Research Programme project (CLIVAR) on climate variability and predictability.

What is happening behind the scenes in the news media during the contentious US election? How can historians help us understand this moment? In this video, I speak to journalism historian Professor Emeritus Michael Palmer from Sorbonne Nouvelle University in Paris, France about the 2000 election. Using this history, we talk about the current election and the pressures international news agencies are under to deliver when there is yet to be a definitive result. Professor Palmer's book International News Agencies: A History is published by Palgrave Macmillan and can be purchased where ever you buy books. However, the e-version is also readily available for download through most university library systems. https://www.amazon.ca/International-News-Agencies-Michael-Palmer/dp/3030311775

Host Abhishek Mukund is joined by University of Texas professor Gregory Palmer to discuss the the process of developing antibiotics, how antibiotics work within a body, and the consequences of overusing them. Professor Palmer also discusses the possibility of a super-resistant form of bacteria forming from the overuse of antibiotics, and what scientists are currently doing to combat this.
Listen NowHuman physiology or biological functioning exhibits fractal or irregular patterns. When heart rate, (or respiration rate, blood pressure, brain waves and even walking stride length) begins to lose its fractal dimension or there is a loss of heartbeat variability, this is an indication of illness. In order to respond best to environmental circumstances, adaptative variability (not homeostasis) is what organisms strive toward. Measuring therefore the decline in heart rate variability over time can serve as a clinically effective biomarker for the onset of disease, for example, the onset of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), one of the leading causes of hospitalizations and re-hospitalizations. During this 20 minute interview Professor Palmer explains briefly the science behind what explains heart rate variability and variability more generally in biological functioning, what are the clinical or health care or clinical applications for this research, his research to avoid COPD hospitalizations and the onset of infection for leukemia patients, the larger implications of this research work and receptivity toward this different paradigm in understanding biological functioning and disease progression.Dr. James Palmer is an Assistant Professor in Family Medicine at the University of Colorado's Anshuyltz Medical Campus in Denver. His research concerns testing and developing the use of heart rate interval dynamics as an actionable prognostic biomarker for earlier detection and diagnosis COPD exacerbation. Dr. Palmer also has an independent professional practice that designs applications of complexity sciences to improve clinical care processes and outcomes. His work has helped to develop and implement healthcare improvement projects both in the US and Canada. Dr. Palmer completed his Doctor of Management in 2007 at the Complexity and Management Centre, University of Hertfordshire, UK. He was also educated as an economist at the University of Chicago (MA) and Texas Christian University (BA).For a review of the theory behind and applications for monitoring variability see, for example, Andrew JE Seely, et al.

Doctor Who "Hide" review "Hide" Written by: Neil Cross Directed by: Jaime Payne "Hide" is a great romp around a giant haunted castle in 1974. This episode was full of great one liners including references to "Ghost Busters," health and safety, "selfie" Doctor pics, and the bonds of love. The Doctor gets deep with Professor Palmer about outliving people. Clara gets a look at the end of Earth's life cycle. She questions whether the Doctor even cares for humanity at all, as all humans are just ghosts to him. Love is uncovered, a crashed traveler is rescued, and the TARDIS gets cheeky with Clara :) Join us as we review the episode and discover exactly why the Doctor chose to come to such a scary place as a haunted Caliburn mansion :) Tweet us your feedback at @FancasticFP & leave your reviews and comments on iTunes
Professor Palmer looks at the Industrial Revolution and how it transformed societies. She also examines the idea that the Revolution is as important to civilization as the transition from hunter-gatherers to farming societies thousands of years ago.
