The experience of the development of science shows that the quality and significance of a scientific discovery and its usefulness or harm for human civilization are inversely dependent on any expectation, be it the expectations of the entire scientific community, and even more so the expectations of a "non-professional" society. For example, it is known that the great Rutherford, who discovered the atomic nucleus, believed that his discovery would have no practical application.

Science will achieve cute of Covid 19 in 2021.

Carona vacciene if it proved effective

Greetings

As the advancement of science in the field of computer science and especially artificial intelligence has progressed amazingly, it can be said that it will be one of the greatest scientific achievements in 2021 in the field of artificial intelligence.

Making robots with very high intelligence and able to operate in several centers, factories and public places, is probably one of the activities that will soon be possible with artificial intelligence and computer science.

Although in 2021 we will probably see the progress of science in these areas, but I hope that in the years to come, the science of artificial intelligence will cause danger and create problems for humanity.

Control of the pandemic

The global connections of science, technology and society hold obvious transformations for this year. The new social context generated by COVID-19, is producing a situation more oriented to cooperation and scientific exchange. To some extent it is contradictory to recognize that, prior to the pandemic, there was much less openness to scientific publications that are now readily shared.

Access to knowledge and cooperation should not be conditioned to emerging conditions, they are values that should last forever.

I appreciate this important notice

What you tell us arouses great interest for the scientific community, because it will inexorably influence the future of science that is done in this complex field of knowledge.

These results have a particularly humanistic connotation, in favor of well-being and health.

Team work, communication, engagement with the public. Millions of dollars invested will prove nothing if people all aroung the world are afraid to get a vaccine or do not wear masks.

Absolutely agree with your valuable comment Dr. Magdalena Day. It is essential to gain in participation and especially in social awareness in this worrying issue. regards

Reinaldo

Dear Reinaldo Requeiro

From my perspective, the relevance of the heart's connection with consciousness and different levels of mind will become increasingly evident during this year.

At least I hope so - Warm regards Tina

Magnificent contribution Dr. Tina Lindhard.

Undoubtedly a complex field that determines crucial moments for science and in a related way for human well-being

Hi, Reinaldo and everybody.

I think the main contribution that science will achieve in this year 2021 is a result of what happened in the USA and also here in Brazil.

We have seen two very stupid presidents, and also two very stupid persons,Trump and Bolsonaro, conducted millions of stupid people against science, against OMS, against scientific authority.

Science gained a forceful paradigm which shows that no matter how much science is precise and proved if the simple man does not comprehend it any stupid politician or the so-called celebrities can induce millions of people on an almost mortal journey against the right thing that may be done.

I really think we scientists must think about it because science is our work but it is also clearly necessary and useful to humanity, and it cannot be subverted by stupid presidents, by stupid people, and causing a risk of collapse and extinction of all civilization and human beings.

It was really astonishing what happened in USA and Brasil during the COVID pandemic and hope a solution for this danger is what science will achieve in 2021.

"Science is knowledge and knowledge is power". Is it?

Dear Jorge

Inevitably, there is a close relationship between politics and science.

There is also an inevitable relationship between politicians.Without lack of decency, what a way this marriage has found to express itself!

Truth?

Dear Reinaldo,

You are right, no doubt.

Nevertheless, science proves that "truth is itself a lie". We'd better say there´s at best "an expectation of truth".

I did not intend to be political. What I meant was to say that science cannot be demoralized by stupidity or by those that are not able to understand a scientific fact or statement.

If you pay attention, Flat Earth Theory has maybe more enthusiasts, adepts, fans or believers, than maybe RG has members.

I think this is something astonishing that the stupid has such a strong voice. How comes? If Trumps's anti-science movement is not urgently fought soon we scientists will be burning in a bonfire.
