Brian Greene is widely recognized for his groundbreaking discoveries in the field of superstring theory. Greene is co-founder and director of Columbia’s Institute for Strings, Cosmology, and Astroparticle Physics, and his many books include The Elegant Universe, The Fabric of the Cosmos, and The Hidden Reality.
