Anticipating what’s next in science, with Sophie Gilbert | Wellcome

Is it possible to predict the future of science? The Science Breakthrough Radar at the Geneva Science and Diplomacy Anticipator (GESDA) aims to do just that. The Radar brings together researchers, scientists and people working in policy to understand and anticipate the trends in science over the next 5 to 25 years. This helps policymakers prepare for the implications of upcoming technologies and potential science breakthroughs. In this Wellcome Guest Lecture, Sophie Gilbert, Programme Lead for the Science Breakthrough Radar, discusses the process of anticipating trends and the impact of this work. Sophie also shares the next science breakthroughs we might see and the trends the Radar already predicted, such as the technology that led to ChatGPT.
