“Nanoengineers have developed microscopic robots… that can swim around in the lungs,
deliver medication and be used to clear up life-threatening cases of bacterial pneumonia.
In mice, the microrobots… resulted in 100% survival. By contrast, untreated mice all died
within three days after infection.”
