Here is a list of top 10 new tech ideas in 2015 from MIT
What I like and which I think are easy to apply and where needs are most urgent:
.
1. Project Loon of Google using 20 km high helium balloon to bring ineternet access to remote places of the globe. About 60% of the world population do not have internet acess
2. Megascale desalination plant by Sorek in Israel, which is cheaper and more efficient can solve world's shortage of fresh water supply. There is a shortage of world supply among 700 million of world's population. Sorek produces 20% of Israel water's need. It costs only 58 cents to produce one cubic meter of water, about same cost as retail water in PHL, and 50% less than other desalination plant
3. Liquid biopsy using DNA testing for early detection of cancer Discovered by Dr. Dennis Lo of China. Could help reduce deaths from cancer due to early cancer detetection
4. Growing brain organoids from stem cells for helping regrow brain tissues ravaged by old age and injuries. Studies by Madeline Lancaster
