Can an eruption be predicted?

In the time scientists have been studying volcanoes, have they learned to detect the warning signs of an eruption? To what extent is it possible to anticipate these natural disasters? And today, what is the most monitored volcano in the world?
Those are the questions answered by Sylvie Vergniolle, a volcanologist at the Institut de Physique du Globe de Paris (Paris geophysical institute - IPGP).
