First living robots, called ‘xenobots’, could be used in drug delivery



Using embryonic stem cells from frogs, scientists have created living robots; called xenobots, these organisms are able to heal after injury and could be the future of drug delivery.
A team of scientists has repurposed living cells to create 1mm wide living robots called ‘xenobots’. By using cells, the researchers made a life form that could move, heal after injury and after seven days, die and completely biodegrade. These new organisms could be used in the future to deliver a drug payload to a specific area in a patient.
