Industrial opportunities are going to stem more from the biological sciences than from chemistry and physics. I see biology as being the greatest area of scientific breakthroughs in the next generation.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Bio-Technology is expected to play a major role in improving productivity.
The potential for synthetic biology and biotechnology is vast; we all have an opportunity to create the future together.
Biology is now bigger than physics, as measured by the size of budgets, by the size of the workforce, or by the output of major discoveries; and biology is likely to remain the biggest part of science through the twenty-first century.
As the Industrial Age is drawing to a close, I think that we're witnessing the dawn of the era of biological design.
In the past, biology has been a backwater type of activity - a bunch of nerds in a lab. Now the sheer potential of biology to re-program our physical world is a new reality for everyone.
In consequence, science is more important than ever for industrial technology.
Advances in technology will continue to reach far into every sector of our economy. Future job and economic growth in industry, defense, transportation, agriculture, health care, and life sciences is directly related to scientific advancement.
For businesses, biomimicry is about bringing a new discipline - biology - to the design table. It's not to write an environmental impact statement, as most biologists in business do right now.
I see, in the future, bioengineered almost everything you can imagine that we use.
Biohackers want to tinker; do fun science; and, in the process, accelerate the pace of biotech innovation.
