Spacetime And Cinema: Science On The Screen At Phoenixville's Colonial Theatre

PHOENIXVILLE, PA -- A physics professor at Philadelphia University will discuss issues of time and space before a showing of the sci-fi film "Primer" at the Colonial Theatre in Phoenixville on April 26.

The event is the next in the unique Science on Screen series, which pairs leading figures in the scientific world with a wide range of cinematic works. In March, an Ursinus physics professor spoke before a showing of "Run Lola Run."

"Primer" tells the story of a software development team that creates a device that lets them see into the future. However, they quickly learn the potential consequences of rash action affecting the spacetime continuum.

Philly U's Brian Yust's research focuses on fabricating novel nanoparticles for biomedical imaging and cancer therapy.
