The Future of Medicine

It's an exciting time to be alive. Medicine is following Moore's Law:

The technology involved here is worth thinking about. Even now, this was a rather costly experiment as these things go, and it's worth a paper in a good journal. But a few years ago, needless to say, it would have been a borderline-insane idea, and a few years before that it would have been flatly impossible. A few years from now it'll be routine, and a few years after that it probably won't be done at all, having been superseded by something more elegant that no one's come up with yet.

I feel privileged to be able to contribute, albeit indirectly, to this trend.
