Science and Society Seminar by Bruce Alberts

What are new opportunities for scientists today, and what are the challenges they have to face? How will science and technology improve the human condition? When and how is science hampered by bureaucracy and a lack of energy, innovation, and resources? What could the international scientific community look like in 20 years or so?

The Dresden Forum on Science and Society is happy to announce the next Science and Society Seminar.

Bruce Alberts: "Science and the World's Future".

The seminar takes place on September 9, 2011, at 16:00 in the MPI-CBG Auditorium.

Bruce Alberts is Editor-in-Chief of Science and was the president of the National Academy of Sciences from 1993 to 2005. His book "Molecular Biology of the Cell" has become the standard cell biology textbook in most universities.
