Scientists have developed tiny, light-activated nanomachines that can drill into cancer cells
and kill them within minutes.
Last year’s Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to three scientists who discovered how to
build these nanomachines out of a chain of atoms.
For a study published in the journal
Nature, scientists built several of these nanomachines.
When activated by light, the
nanomachines targeted specific cells and broke through the membrane, rapidly killing
them.
