## AI overview

A transcript of a TU Delft lecture examining the relationship between universities, science, and national security. It argues that universities are structured to disseminate knowledge rather than keep military secrets, and suggests that defense innovation is better developed in associated but separate laboratories.

## Source excerpt

This is a mostly verbatim transcript of my lecture at the TU Delft VvTP Physics symposium "Security of Science" held on the 20th of November. Audio version (scroll along the page to see the associated slides): Thank you so much for being here tonight. It's a great honor. I used to study here. I'm a dropout. I never finished my studies, so I feel like I graduate tonight. This is a somewhat special presentation, it has footnotes and references, which you can browse later if you like what you saw.
