A "living library" project in Malaysia's capital is sharing older people's knowledge with the young, to improve the lives of retired people and bridge Kuala Lumpur's generation gap. It links groups of students with retirement homes so older people can discuss the challenges they face living in the city and the students can offer solutions. The project is run by the World Economic Forum's Global Shapers Community, an international network of young professionals from business, academia and civil society, seeking to make a positive impact in local communities.

At one of Alibaba?s high-tech Hema grocery stores in Shanghai you can enjoy an automated dining experience. As you enter a quick QR code scan shows you your table and automatically notes your seat in the system for Hema's robotic waiters. You can look at a fresh array of seafood and handpick your own ingredients, paid for in-app. A raised highway of robot pods has replaced human waitstaff with humans mostly left to the greeting and cooking. www.axios.com/alibaba-robot-restaurant-shanghai-china-automation-41348039-2540-4a42-8495-f0991db71574.html?
Emulate uses organs-on-chips to accurately test drugs on individual, human organs. In the future, these could be your cells on a chip, tested with treatment after treatment until the right one sticks, offering personalised medicine tailored exactly to your genetic makeup. The micro-devices work by recreating the tissue interfaces of human organs inside a transparent polymer ?chip?, so the behaviours of bacteria, drugs and human white blood cells can be easily monitored through a microscope. https://emulatebio.com
