🧠 Join us for a mind-bending evening as Professor Anshul Kogar explores how groundbreaking experiments in quantum physics are reshaping our understanding of reality itself.
🔬Over the last half century, quantum experiments have revealed a world that defies our everyday intuition—where particles can be in multiple places at once, influence each other across vast distances, and challenge the very idea of an objective, observer-independent reality.
📋 Professor Kogar will walk us through some of these pivotal experiments and explain how they have transformed our understanding of quantum mechanics.
🥼Anshul Kogar is an experimental physicist whose research focuses on the interaction of light with matter, giving him a unique perspective on how we probe and understand the quantum world in the lab.
📍 Location: Los Angeles (Exact address given in confirmation email)
🧠 Lecture: “Quantum Physics & The Experiments Challenging Our Reality”
🎤 Speaker: Professor Anshul Kogar

Last week, @lecturesontap packed a beer hall in Manhattan where Oxford Anthropologist @mackenmurphy gave a lecture titled “The Controversial Science of Why People Cheat”.
What started as a question we’ve all asked ourselves has become a growing field of peer-reviewed research — and people can’t get enough of it.
The dynamics of your situationship have been studied in a lab and people are yearning for the results in order to gain everything from advantages, to closure.
That’s exactly what Lectures on Tap was built for — a weekly event series that brings world-class researchers out of the academy and into bars to talk to real people about real life.
Across the country, a wave of researchers, journalists, and psychologists are stepping out of the lab and into bars to share real data on love, mating, and modern relationships.
The only thing we’re left wondering now is would attending a lecture like this be a good… or bad idea for a date night? 🍻🧠💋 #lecturesontap
