“In the “stealth era,” battlefield strength might just be dictated by the level of stealth or invisibility technology at the disposal of combatants. This is likely to trigger a scientific and technological race, as well as provide new platforms for countries to enhance their prestige domestically and internationally.”

— Nayef Al-Rodhan

“Immunity is still, despite such extensive knowledge, a field full of secrets. It fascinates us and pushes us to develop new research strategies. Sometimes it resembles a fight with a stranger and invisible opponent, although lately, thanks to modern technology, this „battlefield” has been quite well recognized.”

Włodzimierz Ptak (1928–2019) immunologist

“The great question for our time is, how to make sure that the continuing scientific revolution brings benefits to everybody rather than widening the gap between rich and poor. To lift up poor countries, and poor people in rich countries, from poverty, to give them a chance of a decent life, technology is not enough. Technology must be guided and driven by ethics if it is to do more than provide new toys for the rich.”

“Scientific and technological progress themselves are value-neutral. They are just very good at doing what they do. If you want to do selfish, greedy, intolerant and violent things, scientific technology will provide you with by far the most efficient way of doing so. But if you want to do good, to solve the world's problems, to progress in the best value-laden sense, once again, there is no better means to those ends than the scientific way.”

Richard Dawkins (1941) English ethologist, evolutionary biologist and author

“Technology is not simply additive; it is more often exponential. An invention usually triggers other inventions.”
