Didn't bother to look through entire list but some technology that I know we're making some breakthoughs on that I'm excited about are quantum computers, implants, gene therapy, and most other stuff in the medical field as well.

That sounds kind of like a horror movie.
You're walking alone at night and suddenly you're pulled into van. You wake up and you're in a body of a 70 year old man with a failing heart.

Or the opposite could happen. I loved this concept in the book Old Man's War by John Scalzi. Take old people who are going to die in a few years, and give them the choice to get a new body and fight to defend earth's colonies.

The issue with full body transplants is it will require another body to do so, and not every dead body died of natural causes, meaning not all of them will be usable.
So unless we start creating humans and then killing them for the sole purpose of body transplants, it will have to be a 'use in case of emergency' type of procedure.
