Yep. Bioengineering and Bioinformatics, especially with recent gene editing technologies invented. We still don't know what gene patterns cause most of the diseases. Sifting through genetic data (with the help of computers) and finding the patterns responsible (so that they can edited out or modified) for these diseases is going to be a huge industry. As a result, diagnosis and medicine would become personalized to a certain extent.
- sifoo 9y agoThe only problem I can see with that is that most diseases aren't caused by gene patterns. What we're mostly looking at is a combination of gene patterns and environment; which means that the first priority should be to modify the environment to better support human health. We've been through this stupid line of reasoning so many rounds now that it's about time we tried something different. Nature doesn't make mistakes, humans make mistakes; there's nothing wrong with most peoples DNA, and the human foot is more advanced than any jogging shoe.
