Circular Food Futures: What Will They Look Like?

Nutrigenomics and personalized diets: What will they mean for food?

The modern food system feeds six billion people with remarkable diversity, safety, and nutrition. Yet, the current rise in diet-related diseases is compromising health and devaluing many aspects of modern agriculture. Steps to increase the nutritional quality of individual foods will assist in personalizing health and in guiding individuals to achieve superior health. Nutrigenomics is the scien...

Industry Compliance Costs: What Would They Look Like in a Risk-Based Integrated Food System?

Current policies designed to improve food safety rely on regulation and market incentives. However, the mix of both private and public incentives to improve food safety and the dynamics of industry response to regulation make analysis of the costs of food safety complex. The paper provides an overview of costs of food safety regulation and control in recent literature for both pesticide and mic...

HIV treatment 2020: what will it look like?

Currently there are 28 approved antiretroviral drugs in six mechanistic classes, and recommended first-line regimens are highly potent, well tolerated, and as convenient as one pill, once-a-day. How will HIV treatment change by 2020? Over the next few years, we are likely to see potent 2-drug regimens tested head-to-head with standard three-drug regimens, and some of these will likely become st...

PANEL: Reconfigurable SoC--What Will It Look Like

The argument against ASIC SoCs is that they have always taken too long and cost too much to design. As new process technologies come on line, the issue of inflexible, unyielding designs fixed in silicon becomes a serious concern. Without the flexibility of reconfigurable logic, will standard cell ASICs disappear and go the way of gate arrays? Will ASIC manufacturers lose their edge in providing...
