I'M DAVE KELLY, DIRECTOR OF ADVANCED MEDIA PRODUCTION

TODAY WE'RE GOING TO EXPLORE THE WORLD OF FUTURE TECHNOLOGY:

FLYING CARS; ROBOTS THAT CARE OF ALL OF OUR DRUDGERY WORK;

DR. STOUT IS AN ASSISTANT PROFESSOR OF MECHANICAL

>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH, DAVID, FOR LETTING ME COME HERE

AND TO TALK ABOUT THE FUTURE INNOVATIONS OF TOMORROW.

I SHOULD NOTE FOR BENEFIT OF THE AUDIENCE

THAT THIS IS YOUR SECOND APPEARANCE ON TALKING POINTS.

IN THE FIRST APPEARANCE WE TALKED EXCLUSIVELY

WITH THAT THEN WE'RE GOING TRANSITION TO AUTOMATION

AND ROBOTICS, AND THEN MOVE ON TO TRAVEL,

BUT LET'S GO AHEAD AND PICK UP THE THREAD

FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND, THE FUTURE IS BRIGHT FOR THOSE

WHO ARE CURRENTLY HAVING TO UNDERGO CHEMOTHERAPY,

AND RADIATION, AND SO FORTH FOR CANCER TREATMENTS.

THAT NANOPARTICLE WILL BE ABLE TO TRAVEL THROUGH THE BODY

AND SEARCH AND DESTROY CANCER CELLS OR PRECANCEROUS CELLS.

AND, AGAIN, IT WILL HELP FOLKS TO AVOID THE TOXICITY

OF CHEMOTHERAPY AND ALL THE RIGORS OF RADIATION.

HOW SOON WILL IT BE WHEN THAT BECOMES A COMMON OCCURRENCE

IN TERMS OF CANCER TREATMENT AND HOW DOES

THERE ARE A LOT OF CLINICAL TRIALS THAT THE FDA, THE NIH,

HAS ACTUALLY BEEN PROPOSED AND AGREED UPON

WHERE YOU TAKE THIS PILL AND YOU HAVE THESE LITTLE,

WHAT WE CALL "NANOBOTS," THAT GO AND THEY SEARCH AND DESTROY.

AND THE TECHNOLOGY BEHIND IT ACTUALLY IS VERY SIMPLE.

YOU HAVE A PARTICULAR MOLECULE THAT YOU HAVE A PARTICULAR,

WHAT WE CONSIDER LIKE A HONING SIGNAL, AND--

AND WHAT THAT HAPPENS IS IT FINDS A PARTICULAR BIOMARKER,

OR A SPECIFIC LOCATION THAT A CANCER CELL MIGHT HAVE,

AND IT FINDS IT, IT SEARCHES FOR IT, AND THEN IT DESTROYS.

AND THEN WHEN IT DESTROYS IT, IT KEEPS ALL

OF THE OTHER HEALTHY CELLS AROUND IT QUITE HEALTHY

AND RADIATION THERAPY WILL DEFINITELY BE IN THE PAST,

I WOULD SAY, HOPEFULLY, IN THE NEXT TEN TO 15 YEARS.

AND THAT'S REALLY WELCOME NEWS AFTER THESE MANY YEARS

OF CHEMOTHERAPY AND RADIATION TREATMENTS THAT ARE EFFECTIVE

IN MANY WAYS, BUT ARE ALSO QUITE TOXIC, AS WE'VE JUST DISCUSSED.

WELL, LET'S TALK ABOUT ANOTHER BIOMEDICAL KIND

OF ADVANCEMENT THAT'S JUST COMING ALONG NOW,

AND THAT'S THE, I GUESS, IMPLANT OF ELECTRODES INTO THE BRAIN

TO HELP RESTORE SHORT-TERM MEMORY FOR PEOPLE

THAT HAVE EXPERIENCED BRAIN DAMAGE OR HAVE HAD ALZHEIMER'S.

AND THIS HAS JUST OCCURRED JUST IN THE PAST FEW YEARS.

IT WAS ACTUALLY A GROUP THAT'S ACTUALLY HERE

IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA THAT'S LEADING THIS INNOVATION.

AND THE WAY IT REALLY WORKS IS THEY USE COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY,

AS WELL AS ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY.

AND THEY KIND OF SYNERGIZE IN PUTTING TOGETHER.

WHEREAS A COMPUTER SCIENTIST OR A COMPUTER PROGRAMMER,

THEY TRY TO FIND SPECIFIC ALGORITHMS OR KIND OF SONGS

AND THEN ELECTRICAL ENGINEER CREATES AN ELECTRODE

OR ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT TO READ THESE PARTICULAR SIGNS

AND THEN THE COMPUTER PROGRAMMER SAYS, "OKAY,

THAT LEARNS THESE PARTICULAR PATTERNS IN THE BRAIN."

AND SO IF SOMEONE LOSES THAT MEMORY WE HAVE THE ABILITY

TO KIND OF IMPLANT THIS CHIP IN THE BRAIN AND THAT IMPLANT,

WILL LEARN THAT PARTICULAR PATTERN IN THE BRAIN.

AND THEN IT IF LOSES THAT MEMORY IT WILL BE ABLE TO REGENERATE

AND THAT'S REALLY HOW THE MIND REALLY WORKS IS LOOKING

AND SO WE ARE JUST COMING OF AGE OF LEARNING
