Hibernation
Science fiction writers were right again (usually they are the first to spot/create new ideas). Hibernation would happen soon and if this technology is industrialised, it would change a lot of things. At least, we will have different timesets for different people (as in sci fi books).
Why now? Someone got by himself into hibernation and it saved him. Now scientists are trying to reproduce it and then understand it. Now that we have a proof, funding is there again.

It seems we are on the verge of much more change than my father has seen for his whole life. This is only on of the “cool” and short term hot research area. Results will soon start to pour in.
