Abstract

The decade we have just embarked on is likely to be replete with medical breakthroughs that could revolutionize our capacity to diagnose, treat and possibly prevent many of the diseases that have plagued the world for centuries. The coming ten years are also likely to witness socio-demographic transitions of a magnitude that have not been seen before. Some of them have been underway for many years, others are still emerging. All of them are likely to accelerate massively in the coming ten years and present the world with new and possibly difficult-to-meet public health challenges.
