Abstract
Observations in atomic, molecular, and optical physics have played a central role in reshaping our concepts of light and matter. The lecture will lead from historical milestones to modern frontiers, including spectroscopic precision tests of fundamental physics laws, ultraprecise clocks, and novel quantum matter. Large mysteries remain, and our concepts of light and matter are likely to undergo further dramatic changes in the future.
