DNA nanopyramids slip through the brain's protective barrier and release cancer drugs only when they detect the acidic ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

(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 ...

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.

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Having the opportunity to participate in the AXP Design Contest, I wanted to implement one of my robotic projects, so I decided to design a nanoRobot. I’ve always wanted to mount my subminature robot, ...

Researchers in the US have developed a new nanorobotic device based on DNA that can deliver “cargo”, such as drugs, to individual biological cells. The technology might one day be used to treat ...
