Explaining Technological Change

Overview

Sudden surges in technological advancement, like the Industrial Revolution, are the result of a long accumulation of ideation and invention finally reaching a tipping point. This program discusses the TAP model, which mathematically explains the mechanisms behind technological advancement in the past and, potentially, in the future.

This research discussion will feature a series of short research presentations from our discussion leaders—Abigail Devereaux, Nathan Goodman, and Roger Koppl—and breakout discussions where participants will be encouraged to discuss their current research and identify opportunities for new projects and collaborations. After the breakout discussions, we will reconvene for remarks from Stuart Kauffman. If you have a research interest in the causes and consequences of technological advancement, we particularly encourage you to apply for this opportunity.

This event will take place on July 30, from 4:30 to 6:00 PM Eastern Time, and will be hosted via Zoom.
