Nanoengineers at the University of California, San Diego used an innovative 3D printing technology they developed to manufacture multipurpose fish-shaped microrobots -- called microfish -- that swim ...

If we can't shrink down to microscopic sizes and steer a tiny ship through the bloodstream Fantastic Voyage-style, microscopic fish-shaped robots steered by magnets may be the next best thing. An ...

A UCSD professor said his team has developed a micro-fish, the size of a human hair. Professor Shao Chen Chen said the micro-robots are 3D-printed and can carry drugs, once injected into a patient.

Tiny 3D-printed robotic fish smaller than the width of a human hair may one day deliver drugs to specific places in our bodies and sense and remove toxins, thanks to research at the University of ...

Developed by nanoengineers at the University of California, San Diego, 3D-printed fish-shaped microbots may be the next cutting edge method for delivering drugs to precise locations within our bodies ...
