Biochips analyses biological materials to diagnose disease, aid in drug discovery and deliver medicine inside the human body to provide the basis for major research and commercial breakthroughs. In the near future, patients will go to a doctor’s clinic with lab on chip devices. The device will inform the doctor in real time if the patient’s ailment will respond to a drug based on his DNA. The chip will also confirm the patient’s identity, diagnose disease and even establish paternity. Human body is a wonderful machine. Using biochips, at the first sign of a physical defect or deformity, people will “shop” around for a better and stronger organically grown heart, brain or kidney as the case may be. With biochips, mankind will be able to prolong its life, maybe forever making human beings into eternal beings.
