• Resumen

  • The article focuses on ten scientific innovations which have the potential to transform the world. It comments on electrochemical batteries that captures carbon dioxide, the development of macrolides from the ground up which could help defeat drug-resistant bacteria, and quantum-key distribution of data with satellites which would be unhackable. It talks about machine learning software which could predict poverty, nanoporous fabrics that cool its wearers, and a mutation which suppresses viruses.
