Fewer women pursue careers in physics than biology, and scientists from around the world believe these differences come down to personal preferences, according to a new study of international ...

Join a university ranked in the UK top five for physics research (THE analysis of REF 2021) with an excellent reputation for teaching and learning. Our course provides a thorough grounding in physics, ...

The authors now call for a re-evaluation of ethical frameworks to foster responsible AI integration in science. They state that prohibition or disclosure requirements are insufficient to regulate AI ...

We have seen a steady increase in high school physics enrollments since the survey’s inception in 1983, with one prior exception. The 2023-24 survey marks the first time physics enrollments declined ...
