Undeterred by years of failure, Katalin Karikó and Drew Weissman proved that mRNA is the future of vaccines.
Rooted in Vedic philosophy, "anupalabdhi" — or "non-apprehension" — can help you exploit gaps in the market.
New tech is a double-edged sword. Integration can be expensive and perilous: Mess up the adoption and jobs are on the line.
Our greatest tool for exploring the world inside atoms and molecules, and specifically electron transitions, just won 2023's Nobel Prize.
We used to think, "That email isn’t going to write itself." But now it can, thanks to AI. And there's so much more, from coding to marketing.
Your organization won’t become a “data democracy” organically — shared knowledge is key.
When leaders connect enterprise ambition with the driving spirit of activism, everyone wins.
A "stakehodler" has both a voice and a vote, an economic interest in how each network stewards important global resources.
Huge shifts in the workforce demand real-world changes in management practices; “command-and-control” no longer cuts it.
Humanity is never fully in control of its creations. This lesson from Mary Shelley has remained relevant for over 200 years.

Generative AI — driven by large language models — has the potential to destroy or supercharge most businesses. Now is the time to pivot.
Technology goes in directions we can never predict — so we must be prepared to limit the spread of unintended consequences.
It is easy to mock Nobel Laureates who go astray, but eccentricity often accompanies brilliance. We should have some sympathy.
It’s early days, but if the efforts can be efficiently scaled-up, such biological recycling could put a dent in the plastic waste problem.
Frustrating failures sometimes lead to great breakthroughs.
Experiments on suborbital rockets are revealing how to make a better iron furnace.
Subtle clues emerge ahead of the attack via changes in scent.
Can quantum computers do things that standard, classical computers can't? No. But if they can calculate faster, that's quantum supremacy.
AI is helping us replace petrochemicals with natural enzymes.
The history of cartography might have been very different if the Latin version of Muhammad al-Idrisi's atlas had survived instead of the Arabic one.
Time to rewrite our understanding of structural engineering.
As the Manhattan Project headed for completion, German attempts to build a nuclear weapon had already been dismantled.
Smarter building materials can control indoor temperatures without external power.
Ice harvesters once made a living from frozen lakes and ponds, but the work was strenuous and dangerous. Then refrigeration changed everything.
Don’t argue with science. Just do it.
LK-99, almost certainly, isn't a room-temperature superconductor. The underlying physics of the phenomenon helps us understand why.
It could cut the time needed to reach Mars in half.
You could send your potential paramour a perfume bottle, a cigar cutter, travel plans — or maybe some cocaine.
A company in England has made a test that picks out the compounds from breath that reveal if people have liver disease.
Is LK-99 truly a room temperature superconductor? These 4 tests, none of which have yet been passed, will separate fact from fiction.
