Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
The Louis and Beatrice Laufer Center for Physical and Quantitative Biology (Laufer Center) is a multidisciplinary venue where research from such fields as biology, biochemistry, chemistry, computer science, engineering, genetics, mathematics, and physics can come together and target medical and biological problems using both computation and experiment. The Laufer Center is part of Stony Brook University. The center's current director is Dr. Ken A. Dill. Associate director is Dr. Carlos Simmerling. Core faculty members include Dr. Gábor Balázsi and Dr. Sasha F. Levy. Additional affiliate faculty are from the Departments of Chemistry, Physics, Applied Mathematics, Pharmacology, Biomedical Engineering, Molecular Genetics & Microbiology, Ecology & Evolution and Computer Science at Stony Brook University, as well as from the Biology Department at Brookhaven National Laboratory. Among the Laufer Center's goals is to enhance interdisciplinary education at Stony Brook University. Dr. Gábor Balázsi coordinates the flagship course of the Center, Physical and Quantitative Biology, which is offered each Fall through the Departments of Physics, Chemistry and Biomedical Engineering.
