Implications of Scientific Discovery Integration

Time has shown that the human mind has a vast imagination and an uncanny ability to triumph over any challenge that comes his way. Over the past centuries, developments in medicine and medical treatment have made great strides. Simultaneously, technology has developed in ways that have made our lives easier and have provided us with ways to prolong our existence and strengthen our impact on the external world.

As time progresses and we approach the would-be future, there seems to be a grown trend of overlap and ultimate convergence, especially in the natural sciences. Physical laws and properties, ranging from the cosmic to the quantum, are found to be true in biological interaction, chemistry, mechanics and many other forms of discipline. With each new discovery comes a new subset of applications for which technological advance can be realized.

But what will all of these discoveries and integrative scientific approaches to the study of life lead to?

Everyday, a new product or device is introduced makes yet another task easier to do or burden easier to bear. Computers and electronic devices are becoming ever more integrated into our everyday lives, even into our bodies. Heart pacemakers and defibrillators are implanted into the body to ensure adequate function of the heart. Some companies have introduced products that have identification information embedded into the skin, able to be accessed simply by scanning it with an electronic device.

Scientists are not far from fully developing a mechanical device that responds to brain signals and brainwave patterns. The farther we push the limits of technology, to closer we become to existing in a "Matrix-like" society. Cybernetic organism will become reality rather than fantasy and free will, choice, imagination and powers of the heart might be challenged by the systemic, logic-bound, technological processes of man-made (even machine-made) devices.

These ideas may seem outlandish and preposterous at the moment, but if you allow your imagination to ask these questions, you will be amazed at what you might conceive. That is the point. The human mind is limitless in terms of what it can imagine and, more importantly, what it can create. And while these advances might be testaments to human power, vitality and devotion, it can also be quite dangerous if not control under an umbrella governed by a desire to preserve the human life.

Even now, new technological devices pose a threat to the well being of unsuspecting consumers who trust a company's product blindly. No matter how remarkable, even piece of technology is capable of malfunctioning or failing, ironically, much like human beings, they are not perfect.

This is why we have a legislative system in place, in which you are able to exercise your rights as a citizen of the country. If you would like more information visit, www.medtroniclawsuitattorney.com.
