The idea of nanorobots floating throughout our arteries to fight diseases and deliver drugs is migrating from science fiction to medical fact, at least in virtual 3D simulations. Nanorobotics pioneer ...

Could nanorobots be the next big cancer-fighting tool? Researchers from Chonnam National University in Gwangju, South Korea have created so-called "Bacteriobot," a genetically-modified non-toxic ...

Colorectal cancer, the abnormal growth of cancerous cells in the large intestine or the rectum, is one of the most common types of cancers worldwide. Available treatments for this type of cancer ...

South Korea claims world's first cancer-treating nanorobot (Reuters) Scientists, including one of Indian origin, have developed a nanorobot using a single DNA strand that can pick up certain molecules ...

The first step has been taken towards developing a nanorobot that -- in the long run -- will enable the targeted transport of medications in the body. A nanorobot is a popular term for molecules with ...

A research team from the University of Hong Kong has developed the world's first light-guided nanorobot, a submicroscopic device with the potential to travel through the bloodstream, curing sickness.

(Nanowerk Spotlight) One of the most important developments in structural DNA nanotechnology – where DNA molecules are assembled into organized and programmable structures – has been the use of a ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have developed nanorobots that kill cancer cells in mice. The robot’s weapon is hidden in a nanostructure and is exposed only in the tumour ...

A paper just published in Science reports the successful design, construction, and testing of a nanorobot made of DNA 1. This achievement genuinely is food for the imagination, given the wide range of ...

Researchers have developed ‘nano-sized’ probes built from DNA that can seek and destroy cancer cells, leaving healthy cells untouched. These ‘nanorobots’ release their drug payload only when they ...

A team of researchers has developed the world's first light-seeking synthetic nanorobot. With size comparable to a blood cell, those tiny robots have the potential to be injected into patients' bodies ...
