Shape-morphing Microrobots Can Deliver and ‘Vomit’ Drugs Directly on Cancer Cells
Chemotherapy successfully treats many forms of cancer, but the side effects can wreak havoc on the rest of the body. That is why Scientists have been looking for new ways to treat cancer for years now and may have found
AI ‘doctor’s assistant’ among projects given £20m
The British government has awarded £20m to fund artificial intelligence projects such as a computerised system that advises doctors on the best treatment to give patients. As part of the Turing fellowship scheme, the money will be shared between 15 AI
Researchers have developed an ‘electronic skin’ that can process information faster than the human nervous system
Inspired by Star Wars, a team of researchers from the National University of Singapore has developed an ‘electronic skin’ that gives amputees with prosthetics the ability to ‘touch’. The artificial skin uses more than 100 small sensors and is about 1

Scientists Creates Artificial Brain Cells
Scientists can now create artificial brain cells which can change the way we build medical devices. Brain cells act in a certain way that are often unpredictable, however, neurons behave in a similar way to electrical circuits, only requiring a
AI Gives Paralyzed Person the ability to ‘Handwrite’ With His Mind
The brain is packed with trillions of information and data and by harnessing this with technology we can see some incredible technological advances, like giving a paralyzed individual the ability to write using its mind. Electrodes implanted in a part of
