There is tremendous potential in Immuno-Oncology. I worked with umbilical cord blood [hematopoietic stem cell] transplants and this area really has tremendous potential for tech that only started being used in the late 80s to 90s. IMO much of the immediate potential for progress in software development will be with the legal and ux itself of ten tech though. Apart from a few companies the software is old, buggy, and has not or will be very slowly updated.

One idea that comes to mind is making vastly improved LIMS and electronic patient recodkeeping software, as what is presently being used [bbcs] is from the 80s although this could be accomplished with just a front end written for it.
