"Nanobots Shrink Bladder Tumors by 90% in Mice Study"

TL;DR
Scientists in Barcelona have developed nanorobots that can reduce bladder cancer tumors in mice by 90% in a single treatment. The tiny robots, injected into the bloodstream, deliver therapeutic nanoparticles directly to the tumor, eliminating the need for multiple treatments. The nanobots, covered with gold nanoparticles, move through the body to reach the tumor and administer radioactive iodine to shrink it. While the long-term efficacy is still uncertain, the study shows promising results and opens the door to potential future treatments for bladder cancer.
