`In this study, Thalassiosira weissflogii was transformed into biohybrid microrobots (Mag-Diatoms) while retaining its natural chlorophyll, thereby enabling Mag-Diatom-mediated photodynamic therapy (PDT) without additional drug modification.`

The #components needed to give a device the properties of a #computer have become increasingly smaller. M. M. Lassiter et al. (2025) designed the #smallest #microrobot to date, measuring just 200 by 300 μm wide and 50 μm thick. It can #aggregate, #communicate, #sense, and #move via #electricalfields inside #fluids. There are interesting applied options for using such a robot in e.g. medical contexts.
