Science builds upon science. Even after peer-review and publication, science papers could still contain images or other data of concern. If not addressed post-publication, papers containing incorrect or even falsified data could lead to wasted time and money spent by other researchers trying to reproduce those results. Several high-profile science misconduct cases have been described, but many cases are yet undetected. Elisabeth Bik is an image forensics detective who left her paid job in industry to search for and report duplicated and manipulated images in biomedical articles.

Fatmata Binta (@chef_binta) Chef of “Dine on a Mat” and Founder of Fulani Kitchen Projects

Addressing the very sustainability of the earth system, global climate, and our energy use has now become a leading area of scientific research.  The sciences of light-matter interactions and electrochemistry are yielding advances that are opening paths for conceptually new sustainable energy technologies that have not previously been achievable.  I will discuss three such “grand challenge” examples.
