Wilczek has made seminal contributions to fundamental particle
physics, cosmology, and the physics of materials. His current
research focus includes Axions, Anyons, and Time Crystals, concepts
in physics which he invented –each of which has become a major
focus of worldwide research. In recent years Frank has become
fascinated with prospects for expanding perception through
technology. He is developing hardware and software tools for this.
He has authored several well-known books and writes a monthly
“Wilczek’s Universe” feature for the Wall Street Journal. His
latest book, “Fundamentals”, was released in January 2021. Buy it
