As to medical discoveries in the next one hundred years: I would envision that cancer, arthritis, heart disease and other ills plaguing mankind will be overcome. Life expectancy should increase markedly with transplanting techniques perfected with artificial organs. Hopefully, improved equipment, communications and methods will insure the best of, and equal, medical care to all peoples of the world.
Sincerely yours,
