Microchips to Store Individual Genetic Codes by 2020

Russian experts in nanotechnologies predict that by 2020 any individual would be able to afford a microchip, storing his genetic code since his birth.
      
      A newborn child will receive a plastic card with a microchip, where information about his future diseases, troubles with health and drug contraindications is stored. The price of said microchip will be affordable for any citizen of a civilized country.
      
      Another innovation that sounds fantastic is “smart dust” – a global network of microprobes with sensors and nanorobots for keeping an eye on everything, which happens in a house. For instance, nanorobots can look after ailing ones and treat them with “smart drugs”, which consider patient’s individual genetic profile.
