Several of these recently identified techy challenges touch upon infrastructure issues, including the nuclear, healthcare and cyber sectors. Very interesting panel, including Ray Kurzweil and Craig Venter.


A National Academy of Engineering panel of big thinkers, including Google co-founder Larry Page, has identified 14 top technological challenges for this century and securing cyberspace is among them.
