Science & Technology Outlook: 2005-2055
In 2005, the U.K. Government’s Office of Science and Technology asked us to take a comprehensive look at the future of science and technology 10, 20, and 50 years out. Over the course of the project, the team co-led by Marina Gorbis, Director, Technology Horizons Program, and Alex Pang, Research Director, performed an extensive review of various existing science and technology forecasts; conducted ten expert workshops in the United States and the United Kingdom with eminent figures in various scientific disciplines; interviewed a few dozen select experts; and created a wiki-style hypertext database of science and technology trends.The work culminated in a map, Science & Technology Outlook: 2005-2055, and perspectives, both focusing on nine key themes.
