[Sigia-l] IAs in non-traditional places

I talked with a woman a few years ago who writes the functional
specifications for clothing. 

She designs schematics (sleeve goes here, pocket there) and functional specs
that she sends to the manufacturer to specify the fabric, color,
measurements, etc. From what I understood, she was the point of
communication between the designer and the manufacturer.

As we talked, we were both shocked to find how similar our jobs are.

I've received a number of responses to my inquiry regarding IAs in biotech,
though I suspect the potential in biotech and bioinformatics holds far more
promise.

That got me into thinking about other emerging fields. So in what other
cutting-edge, non-traditional fields are IAs (broadly defined) actively
participating? Or is there a field which you think could use (more) IAs?

One on my mind as I watch the NBA playoffs, for instance, is (pro) sports.

Best,

Ziya
