String Theory [change]
The string theory is another thing that Kaku studied.[8]
Current [change]
Michio continues to study theoretical physics, and release new Sci-Fi Science episodes.
Other professions [change]
Futurist [change]
A futurist is a notable scientist who can seemingly predict the future. Futurists often use PPPW to evaluate the future. The "three Ps and one W" represent, to futurists, "plausible", "possible", and "preferable". The "W" stands for "wildcard"(random) events.[9]
