Today, nearly a billion people around the world suffer from hunger. However, we have the technical and scientific means to fight against this scourge. A major international player in poverty reduction policies for several decades, Ismail Serageldin presents here the causes of hunger, the issue of food security and the need to transform world agriculture. “It is time to use our scientific knowledge and technological advances to ensure that all people have their human right to food security. New technologies must be transported from the laboratory to the field, in concerted global action."

How to create the conditions favoring biomedical innovation and how to orient research? Elias Zerhouni advocates for the concept of integrated health according to which social and political innovations must enter into synergy with biomedical innovation. Deciphering what the medicine of tomorrow will be - predictive , personalized , preemptive and participative -, he explains why we must preserve the freedom of researchers and how we can encourage innovation in the conduct of scientific projects.

Since the 1960s, the rise of certain countries, particularly in Asia, has helped to mask the weak development of Latin America, and even the backwardness of other countries, such as sub-Saharan Africa. Today, over a billion people around the world still live in poverty. Political actors currently favour the implementation of interventions at the level of the poor populations rather than adapted macroeconomic and structural policies. François Bourguignon undertakes to question the merits of this choice, to assess the knowledge acquired and to identify the nature of the political constraints in the context of globalization..

Le stockage et la conversion de l’énergie sont un des grands défis scientifiques des prochaines décennies et un enjeu environnemental majeur. Quels nouveaux matériaux vont permettre de fabriquer des batteries plus efficaces et plus « propres » ? Jean-Marie Tarascon fait le point sur ces questions qui concernent notre avenir et celui de la planète. Il présente notamment les technologies à ions Lithium, l’apport des nanaotechnologies, et les recherches visant à l’élaboration des matériaux par des méthodes « bio-inspirées » : l’utilisation des matériaux d'électrodes provenant de la biomasse et obtenues par « chimie verte ». The storage and conversion of energy represents one of the major scientific challenges for coming decades with high stakes for the environment. Which new materials will enable the construction of more efficient and “cleaner” batteries? Jean-Marie Tarascon takes stock of these questions with their implications for our future and that of the planet. He notably discusses lithium-ion technology, the contribution of nanotechnologies and current research into using bio-inspired methods to develop material such as electrode material obtained from the biomass by scientists working in the field of “green chemistry”.
