Question

How could nanobots revolutionize the treatment of brain malformations and tumors?

Nanobots could revolutionize the treatment of brain malformations and tumors by being injected into the body and guided to the affected area. They could potentially deliver targeted drug treatments or perform precise surgical procedures, reducing the need for invasive surgery. This could lead to more effective treatments, fewer side effects, and faster recovery times.

Microbots have taken the form of everything from to to navigate the human body and retrieve objects once inside. Eventually, these microbots could be to deliver drugs or unblock arteries. One company, Bionaut Labs, plans for its microbots injected into the body and guided by magnets to treat congenital brain malformations and tumors. It's not just humans microbots could heal. Similar applications could be used to create nanorobots that heal themselves, too. Researchers have made nanobots that themselves when broken apart and when they become damaged, such as those used to power electric car batteries.
