I've been trying to level up my pop sci medical reading the last few months, and if there's one thing I've learned, it's that our understanding of the human body, how it works and how to fix it, is really still very basic. On the one hand, it's somewhat depressing how little we know and how blunt our tools remain. On the other, it's very exciting just how much of the field remains, frankly, wide open.
There's several medical revolutions just waiting to happen. The next few decades will, hopefully, be very interesting. If I was a young man, I would definitely be getting into biotechnology.
