Veronika Hubeny

Veronika E. Hubeny is an American physicist and academic who specialises in string theory and quantum gravity. Since 2015, she has been a professor in the Department of Physics of University of California, Davis. Previously, Hubeny was Professor of Physics at Durham University, where she had worked from 2005 to 2015.[1][2] From January to April 2014, she was a member of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey.[3]

In 2017, Hubeny was a member of a panel at the World Science Festival titled "Pondering the Imponderable: The Biggest Questions of Cosmology".[4] She was the only woman of the six panellists. The event attracted controversy when the male moderator (Jim Holt) repeatedly spoke over her, even when she was attempting to answer his questions.[5][6]
