My thoughts exactly. Nice find!

I feel like the next few years we will see some pretty incredible advances in medicine. Much of it will have to do with 3D printing, but also nanotech, dna sequencing and genetics will be huge players .

Agreed 100%

The field of medicine will see a BIG boom in advances soon.
