Illinois researchers developed a nanorobotic hand made of DNA that can grab viruses for detection or inhibition. In this artist’s rendering, three “NanoGripper” hands wrap around a COVID-19 virus.

Science fiction film Fantastic Voyage is a well-known motion picture where miniaturized nano-submarine is injected into a comatose scientist to search and destroy his brain clot. This kind of ...

DNA nanostructures can perform some of the complex robotic fabrication process for manufacturing and self-replication. Building things and performing work with nanorobots has been a major technical ...

Using DNA origami, scientists at Karolinska Institute designed nanorobots containing a hidden cancer kill switch that is activated only when exposed to the tumor environment. They have shared details ...

Is the emerging field of nanomedicine a breathtaking technological revolution that promises remarkable new ways of diagnosing and treating diseases? Or does it portend the release of dangerous ...

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden have developed nanorobots that kill cancer cells in mice. The robot's weapon is hidden in a nanostructure and is exposed only in the tumor ...

(Nanowerk News) A tiny, four-fingered “hand” folded from a single piece of DNA can pick up the virus that causes COVID-19 for highly sensitive rapid detection and can even block viral particles from ...
