Holthausen Group, un fournisseur de gaz aux Pays-Bas, a transformé une Tesla Model S en lui adjoignant une pile à combustible. Résultat, une autonomie de 1 000 kilomètres.
THE RACE BETWEEN KNOWLEDGE AND DATA IN MEDICINE
Researchers, doctors and biologists benefit from the massive amount of available information as health data becomes digitized. But it also becomes harder and harder for human brains to uncover the complexity and extract insights. Data is generated at a much faster pace than knowledge. This is THE scientific challenge. We need to create the tools to help human collective intelligence extract knowledge from this influx of data. Parts of these technologies already exist, parts need to be invented. OWKIN creates AI technologies to advance knowledge and discover the medicine of tomorrow.

The first edition of REthinking Energy, the flagship series from the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), analyses the transformation of the global power sector while reviewing progress in the transition to a sustainable energy future. An alignment of economic forces, global population growth, the threat of climate change and rapid technological advances has set in motion a transformation of the global energy system. A new system based on renewables would enhance energy access and security, create jobs and safeguard health and the environment, IRENA’s report argues.

By Yoshifumi Takemoto and Alan Katz - March 12, 2008 "From a windswept corner of Hokkaido, Japan's northernmost island, Japan Steel Works Ltd. controls the fate of the global nuclear-energy renaissance. There stands the only plant in the world, a survivor of Allied bombing in World War II, capable of producing the central part of a nuclear reactor's containment vessel in a single piece, reducing the risk of a radiation leak."
Aamulehti 20.2.2012: "Keinolihaa jo vuosia kehittänyt hollantilaistutkija Mark Post kertoi sunnuntaina, että ensimmäinen keinolihasta leivottu hampurilaispihvi on tarkoitus nauttia lokakuussa. Missä ja milloin tämä tapahtuu, on vielä tarkkaan varjeltu salaisuus. Myöskään sitä Post ei kertonut, kuka saa ensimmäisenä maistaa synteettistä lihaa. Mark Post puhui toimittajille sunnuntaina Vancouverissa Kanadassa järjestettävällä Yhdysvaltain tiedeviikolla."
Publit Sweden AB gör det ständigt enklare att publicera böcker. Publit samarbetar idag med flera av Sveriges ledande bokförlag. Iceberg är utvecklat av det amerikanska företaget ScrollMotion. Till skillnad från till exempel Stanza, som använder kataloger, ligger läsaren i själva boken. Iceberg har snabbt vunnit marknadsandelar och ägnades särskild uppmärksamhet på Apples årliga utveckarkonferens i augusti.

Vivek Wadhwa: "My prediction is that 2015 will be the year in which tech takes baby steps in transforming medicine. The technologies that make this possible are advancing at exponential rates; their power and performance are increasing dramatically even as their prices fall and footprints shrink. The big leaps will start to happen at around the end of this decade."
