Delia Perlov’s research interests are focused on the eternally inflating multiverse​ and touch on various aspects of cosmology, string theory, quantum field theory and general relativity. She got her MSC and
Ph.D. from Tufts University and then spent several years working as a postdoctoral fellow, also at Tufts, where she now lectures on a part-time basis. Her first book, “ Cosmology for the Curious” (co-authored
with Alex Vilenkin, 2017) aims to bring anyone with a cosmological sense of wonder and a facility with high school algebra up to date with modern cosmology. Her personal multiverse includes her husband and her three children. She loves playing the piano,
yoga, drawing, ​and painting. Delia is preparing to get back to her research interests after several years spent writing a textbook on Cosmology, and several personal projects. She is also teaching a class at Tufts this summer called “ Cosmology for the Curious”. Her talk explores the multiverse phenomenon. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
