Any attempt to predict what will be the big new, “hottest” areas of science is fraught with risk. When one overlays, for the purpose of this book, how those “hot new science areas” might impact the experiments and activities going on in the lab of the future, combined with how that LotF might look physically, then the chances of this section being at best, a bit “off” and at worst plain wrong increase rather dramatically! Nevertheless, even with this “caveat emptor,” we feel that in this forward‐looking section, it is important to call out a few of the new scientific areas [87] which we personally feel are worth watching for how they might impact the LotF. In keeping with the broad scope of this book we have concentrated more on the likely scientific developments in (i) the health care and (ii) the life sciences domains, but we have also picked out a small number of examples in (iii) other scientific areas.
