Harvard Researchers Create Microscopic Robots
May 11th, 2009
Nanotechnology has once again proved useful. This time, Harvard Science reports that researchers from the Rowland Institute of Harvard have been able to develop and manufacture microscopic robots that can carry (or rather push) chemicals and other loads that are heavier than themselves through liquids or solutions; water, medicine, drugs, blood, and other types of liquids and solutions easily come to mind. Thus, the development of this nanoscale robots have implications in the field of biological research and medicine, especially microsurgery, among others.
