Nanomachines May Deliver Drugs and Destroy Diseased Cells
Nanotechnology is advancing across many aspects of science, engineering, and medicine. I am particularly impressed with what researchers at Rice University are doing. They have developed nanomotors which are incredibly small. The motors can spin at 2-3 million rotations per second. The size of the motors is mind-boggling, 50,000 of them side by side fill […]
Nanomotors In Our Bodies?
Nanobots traveling in the bloodstream of humans is hard to visualize, but it is likely to be an important part of healthcare in the future. A complimentary technology has been announced by the University of Texas at Austin. UT engineers there claim to have built the “smallest, fastest, and longest-running synthetic motors ever created”. The nanomotora are less than […]
Medical Breakthroughs
Every week, I look forward to reading the newsletter from MedicalAutomation.org. It publishes an excellent newsletter covering developments in medical research. I am continuously amazed at what I read. There is no doubt in my mind we will see more breakthroughs in the next ten years than we have seen in the last 100 years. The […]
