According to the Science and Technology Daily, the medical community has long been dedicated to developing microrobots capable of precise “targeted drug delivery” to achieve targeted therapy. Now, a research team from ETH Zurich in Switzerland has developed a microrobot that can navigate accurately “upstream” in blood vessels. In animal experiments, the team validated the … Read more
In 1966, a science fiction film titled Fantastic Voyage was released in the United States. In the film, to save a scientist whose brain blood vessels were damaged and in critical condition, five doctors were miniaturized to a fraction of a millimeter and injected into the body to travel to the brain to repair the … Read more

With the aging population, changes in lifestyle, and environmental factors, cancer has become one of the major threats to global health.To address this challenge, active targeted cancer treatment strategies have gradually become a hot topic in the research … Read more
Recently, researchers from Shanghai University and The Chinese University of Hong Kong (Shenzhen) collaborated to develop a novel type of magneto-thermal hydrogel swarms. Through magnetic-thermal cooperative regulation, the hydrogel swarms can remotely heat magnetic particles using a magnetic field; when magnetic heating is required, they switch to a high-frequency oscillating magnetic field, causing the material … Read more
