Posted by Chuck Bednar on September 1st, 2017
Nanomachines capable of drilling holes in the membranes of individual cells could soon be a new weapon in the battle against cancer, as new research has demonstrated that the motorized molecules can effectively be used to kill off tumor cells in a mere 60 seconds. The breakthrough, described in a report published Thursday by The […]
