There is something disruptive taking place in science.
Something that is already altering the pace of research.
New predictive models for protein structures are turning months of research into just hours.
Whole genome analyzers that can identify single nucleotide variants in just minutes. Gene therapies that rewrite faulty human code, stem cell treatments that reverse the effects of aging, diseases once untreatable becoming manageable, and the manageable ones becoming cured.
Our understanding of everything is being disrupted by more and more knowledge.
Better knowledge, better tools, better medicine, better life.
But there is one thing that is unfortunately not getting
