Condensed Matter Physics as seen by Prof. Paul C. Canfield.

Here we present to you the first result of the So-Close project. One of those jewels that you don't find very often. Professor Paul C. Canfield discusses about condensed matter physics, its meaning, its many ramifications within science, its impact on society, etc. Enjoy it.

The So-Close project:
We are a group of young condensed matter physicists of the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid with a strong interest in outreach and public dissemination of science. Recently we won a grant of the American Physical Society to perform a series of videos about the wonders of our field of research.

The project is called "Condensed Matter Physics: so close and such a stranger"
