Innovation--the work of the scientists and engineers profiled in the pages that follow--doesn't just change our understandings of reality, the way pure science can; it changes lives, now or decades down the road. While scientists expanded our minds this year with news about possible lake districts on Mars, human ancestors perhaps 6 million years old, and a shadowy particle that may be the wellspring of mass, innovators were trying to use science and engineering to address humanity's deepest needs and desires. The questions that occupy them are the ones the rest of us fret or dream about, for our own sake and our grandchildren's." (U.S. NEWS & WORLD REPORT)
