New worlds, new life, new bodies: just some of the breakthroughs we may see by 2020, predict a panel of leading Australian scientists interviewed by ABC Science.

There have been some incredible leaps forward in science in the past decade. It's difficult to imagine what life was like before Wi-Fi, and hard to believe how much we've discovered about Mars. And it's only seven years since the entire human genome was sequenced, yet since then, scientists have cracked the genomes of dozens more species.

So what's next? How many more amazing scientific discoveries will we see by the end of the next decade? And how will these change our lives?

ABC Science asked some of Australia's most outstanding researchers in astronomy, health, technology and the environment to gaze into the future and predict what the world will look like in 2020.
