Meet theoretical physicist Jim Gates in this video profile from NOVA’s “The Secret Life of Scientists & Engineers.” It was the tragic loss of his mother when he was 12 years old that ignited his curiosity of faith and spirituality. While many scientists steer clear of faith, Jim is a faith/science “healer” and believes that a balance of the two is essential to the survival of our species. This resource is part of the NOVA: Secret Life of Scientists & Engineers Collection.
