A tiny fleet of machines that can be steered through the bloodstream by nothing more than a magnetic field is moving closer ...

A new class of microscopic machines is moving from theory into reality, and it could change how diseases are treated and how chemicals are produced. Built from biomolecules instead of metal and ...

For the first time, researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have succeeded in using nanorobots to stimulate stem cells with such precision that they are reliably transformed into bone ...

Inspired by how a car uses an engine and a steering wheel to reach its destination, the nanorobot integrates two enzymatic functions. Urease works for propulsion by harnessing endogenous urea in ...

A new review shows how magnetism and light could give microscopic robots the control, adaptability, and multifunctional power needed for next-generation medicine and environmental cleanup. Topical ...
