As part of our 1 year anniversary, we just published a new article that is certain to shake your beliefs. Here's the abstract:

We are now entering a new era of profound change, one at an exponential growth rate called the Exponential Revolution. This revolution will create unprecedented changes, technological breakthroughs and discoveries in many facets of science that will change our personal lives even more than any other previous technological advancement. Over the next 50 years, the medical and healthcare sectors will see previously unimaginable, unthinkable and unbelievable scientific breakthroughs that will yield truly amazing discoveries.

The exponential increase in computing performance and miniaturization efforts, often related to nanotechnology, will be the foundation of many fundamental research discoveries during this upcoming Exponential Revolution. We foresee in the next 50 years, based on this solid foundation described above, rapid changes in key research development areas and applications related to Genomics (DNA Research), Neuroscience (Brain Research), Biotechnology (Stem Cells Research), Bionic, Robotics and Space discoveries.
