They said, “Lets cooperate horizontally on defining both the problem and the solutions - lets create value that way - and then the foundation will _43_ our money in the solutions we both define.” So the Gates Foundation placed ads on the Web and in more _44_ channels across both the developed and the developing worlds, asking scientists to respond to one big question: What .are the biggest problems that, if science attended to them and solved them, could most dramatically change the fate of the several billion people trapped in the evil cycle of high _45_ death rate, low life expectancy, and disease?
