Brian Greene steps away from teaching Columbia's Frontiers of Science

Original: Brian Greene stops teaching Frontiers of Science after more than a decade

Physicist and author Brian Greene has stopped teaching Frontiers of Science, Columbia University's core science course for undergraduates, after more than a decade in the classroom. Greene, known for his work on string theory and popular science writing, was a longtime figure in the course. Details on his reasons for stepping back and who will replace him remain unclear.

Why now: Greene is a prominent public scientist, so his departure from a signature Columbia course draws attention.
