- Quantum theory of fields: effective or fundamental?
- Asymptotic safety approach to quantum gravity
- ... possible that string theory is not needed, ... the world can just be described at a fundamental level by quantum field theory

"I don’t want to discourage string theorists, but there’s just the possibility that maybe that isn’t the way the world is, that the world is much more like we’ve always known, that is, the Standard Model and General Relativity."
