410日下午,上海交通大学携手《科学》杂志共同发布了125个全世界最受关注的科学问题。这125个问题集合了全球智慧。为纪念建校125周年,上海交大与《科学》/美国科学促进会联袂策划发行《125个科学问题——探索与发现》增刊。

上海交通大学校长林忠钦,常务副校长丁奎岭,副校长徐学敏、奚立峰、毛军发、王伟明,《科学》/美国科学促进会国际合作总监初晓英,世界顶尖科学家协会副主席、2013年诺贝尔化学奖得主Michael Levitt,秘书长王侯共同受邀上台,共同按下面向全球的125个科学问题发布装置。

林忠钦表示,重大科学问题的凝练是大学创新使命和能力的重要体现,学校联合《科学》面向全球征集与发布125个科学问题,希望能够为推动科技进步、服务人类社会发展作出贡献。

《科学》系列期刊出版人Bill Moran通过视频回顾了16年前《科学》杂志社为纪念创刊125周年出版同样发布了《125个科学问题——我们有哪些未知》特刊。这些问题中有些已经在过去的10多年中得到了解决,而有些仍然是延续至今的谜题,甚至在此次的问题征集中,仍然广受关注。

初晓英说,问题的边界就是我们思想的边界,只有提出正确的问题,才能更好地认清和解决全球性问题与挑战。上海交大提出这样极具创新的方式纪念校庆,体现了交大人的创新精神,以及对科学发展、人类未来的重要使命感。专刊上的问题结合国际前沿、全球共需、科学发展,聚焦人类福祉和前瞻重大科学问题,对未来科技的发展具有强烈的指导意义。

Michael Levitt表示,期待学者们和科研人员们对这125个科学问题开展热烈探讨,推动研究发展。

新版125个科学问题中,个别问题是持续关注上版问题中至今尚未解决的重大科学难题,如宇宙是由什么构成的”“我们可以阻止自己衰老吗。也有具有挑战性的全球共性问题,如我们可以阻止全球气候变化吗”“能量存储的未来是怎样的”“我们有可能在另一个星球上长期居住吗;还有具有较强时代特征的前沿科技问题,如为什么生命需要手性”“量子人工智能可以模仿人脑吗”“DNA可以广泛用作信息存储介质吗”“我们如何在火星上开发制造系统”……
