- In July 2024, researchers at Sweden's Karolinska Institute developed nanorobots, equipped with concealed lethal peptides. In trials on mice, these nanorobots specifically targeted and eliminated cancer cells while sparing healthy tissue. In these trials, they achieved a 70% reduction in tumor growth
- In April 2024, The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) launched novel nanorobots. In particular, these nanorobots are retrievable and designed for targeted and enhanced thrombolysis. In doing so, they potentially offer a way to save stroke patients from brain damage
- In December 2023, researchers from universities in New York and Ningbo, China, announced the creation of tiny robots. In this instance, the robots were built from DNA and can reproduce themselves. In the future, this breakthrough has potential applications in drug delivery and molecular diagnostics
