Big Ideas for a Better World

This riveting issue of Scientia showcases some of the biggest new ideas across science, research, and technology. While we face many challenges, from climate change to cancer, epidemics to economic instability, progress and innovation open exciting windows of opportunity. We are thrilled to showcase the researchers who are ‘thinking big’ and working to make positive changes in our world.

Across Engineering & Computer Science, Earth & Environmental Sciences, Health & Medicine, Physical Sciences & Mathematics, Business, Economics & Finance, Social Sciences, Arts & Humanities, and Psychology & Neuroscience, we read how thinking big is benefiting people and the planet. Our feature Spotlight on SciComm Corner highlights recent and interesting posts from Scientia’s webpages.
