As 5G rolls out, attention shifts to 6G, the next generation of wireless technology. This international race aims for significantly higher data rates, improved reliability, and ubiquitous coverage, including underserved areas. Achieving this requires innovations in new architectures like edge computing, reduced latency, breakthrough energy efficiency, and machine learning.

A webinar, organized by the ITU Journal on Future and Evolving Technologies (ITU J-FET), will describe this wireless future. Speaker Andrea J. Goldsmith (Princeton University) will discuss the necessary innovations and breakthroughs. The ITU J-FET is a free international journal covering communications and networking.

"Two American Families: 1991-2024" is a "knockout documentary" (The New York Times) chronicling the economic struggles of two Milwaukee families—one Black, one white—over three decades. From 1991 to 2024, the Stanleys and Neumanns have battled poverty amidst a changing U.S. economy, marked by global shifts and lower-wage work, raising unsettling questions about America's economic future.

With profound intimacy, this FRONTLINE film reveals how these families and their now-grown children have navigated six presidential administrations, facing continuous challenges. As Terry Neumann notes, "It's like we haven't come very far," yet Jackie Stanley declares, "I won't give up." Directed by Tom Casciato and Kathleen Hughes, it offers a powerful window into enduring hardship.

During the reboot of the world's economy, Geoff Mulgan, CEO of the National Endowment for Science Technology and the Arts (NESTA) and a visiting professor, proposes a transformative approach. Instead of allocating bailout money to failing old industries, he suggests utilizing stimulus funds to establish new, socially responsible companies, aiming to improve the world.

Mulgan also questions the effectiveness of GDP as a measurement tool for a new, sustainable economy. His insights are available on http://www.ted.com.

Christof Koch is a prominent neuroscientist focused on the neural bases of consciousness. Born in 1956, he earned his Ph.D. in biophysics after studying physics and philosophy. His distinguished career includes extensive research on the brain, particularly the visual cortex, and developing theories of consciousness. He notably collaborated with Francis Crick, co-discoverer of DNA's structure.

Koch served as a professor at Caltech for decades before becoming Chief Scientist and President of the Allen Institute for Brain Science, where he led pioneering brain mapping efforts. An influential figure, he has authored several books and speaks widely, advocating for a scientifically grounded approach to understanding the mind.
