human progress indicators declines in war terrorism and poverty as well as the importance of reason science and human efforts pinker also shares his existential hope for the future emphasizing the potential for technological advancements cleaner energy and continued societal improvements watch explore seminars podcasts self assembling space architecture presented by ariel ekblaw dr ariel ekblaw engineer and researcher at mit and the aurelia institute presents insights on the latest advancements in next generation space technologies with a focus on rapidly evolving technology in cislunar and low earth orbits leo her work pioneers innovations in commercial space stations and sustainable lunar habitats including the tesserae platform a breakthrough in scalable self assembling space architecture dr ekblaw s perspective outlines the future of a robust space economy driven by engineering advancements in spacecraft systems and habitat construction watch explore seminars podcasts using ai for science to solve humanity s biggest problems podcast with david baker in this podcast episode nobel laureate david baker reveals how scientists are now inventing entirely new proteins life s fundamental building blocks to tackle some of the world s most pressing challenges baker shares his journey and his vision for a future where custom built molecular machines an idea once explored by thinkers like eric drexler could repair our bodies clean up pollution and create sustainable materials he explains how breakthroughs in ai are supercharging this field but also why human ingenuity and collaborative science are still essential to unlocking these revolutionary possibilities watch explore seminars podcasts tools for mapping and controlling the brain presented by ed boyden in this seminar leading neuroscientist ed boyden shares his work on mapping the brain boyden wants to understand the ground truth of the brain what are the building blocks and how do they interact we need to map the brain using expansion microscopy then control and observe high speed dynamics using technologies like optogenetics and fluorescent imaging watch focus areas secure ai
