- Now, Nobuhiro Nishiyama and Takahiro Nomoto from Tokyo Institute of Technology, together with Kazunori Kataoka from the University of Tokyo, have developed a novel light-responsive nanomachine as a new type of gene vector. The nanomachine allowed the team to accomplish systemic light-selective gene transfection into a tumor for the first time.

And probably will lead to a solution for a lot of other medical problems. But the idea of DNA altering nanobots is scary as hell. Now it is no longer just an idea... | |
