DESCRIPTION:The compelling scientific goals of future high-energy physics 
 experiments are a driving factor in the development of advanced detector t
 echnologies. With the increasingly stringent constraints of modern experim
 ents\, a large research effort is devoted to the optimization of existing 
 devices and the development of new more powerful concepts for radiation de
 tection.\n         Modern photolithographic technology has enabled a serie
 s of inventions of novel Micro-Pattern Gas Detectors (MPGD)\, in particula
 r the Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM)\, the Micro-Mesh Gaseous Structure (Mi
 cromegas)\, and other micro pattern devices\, which offers the potential t
 o develop new gaseous detectors with unprecedented spatial resolution\, hi
 gh rate capability\, large sensitive area\, operational stability and radi
 ation hardness. In addition\, the availability of highly integrated amplif
 ication and readout electronics allows for the design of gas-detector syst
 ems with channel densities comparable to that of silicon detectors. Modern
  wafer post-processing allows for the integration of gas-amplification str
 uctures directly on top of a pixelized CMOS readout chip. Thanks to these 
 recent developments\, particle detection through the ionization of gas has
  large fields of application in future particle\, nuclear and astro-partic
 le physics experiments with and without accelerators.   In 2008\, the RD51
  collaboration has been founded to advance technological development of th
 e large area MPGDs and associated electronic-readout systems\, for applica
 tions in basic and applied research.\n    This talk will review trends and
  perspectives of the micro-pattern gaseous detectors for the future physic
 s projects at the High Energy\, High Intensity and Cosmic Frontiers.\n\nht
