Researchers have developed biohybrid robots controlled by fungal mycelia, leveraging the mycelia’s electrical signals to enhance environmental responsiveness. This novel system allows robots to react to stimuli like light.
Researchers said the study showed nanobots had the potential to transport drugs to precise locations.
The development could enable precise, relatively low-risk treatment of brain aneurysms, which cause around 500,000 deaths globally each year. The medical condition – a blood-filled bulge on a brain artery that can rupture and cause fatal bleeds – can also lead to stroke and disability.
The study points to a future where tiny robots could be remotely controlled to carry out complex tasks inside the human body – such as targeted drug delivery and organ repair – in a minimally invasive way, researchers say.
Dark matter is the invisible force holding the universe together—or so we think. It makes up about 85% of all matter and around 27% of the universe’s contents, but since we can’t see it directly, we have to study its gravitational effects on galaxies and other cosmic structures. Despite decades of research, the true nature of dark matter remains one of science’s most elusive questions.
Humans are still learning from nature.
Researchers mimicked ancient fish scales for a 3D-printed concrete structure:

Deep learning (DL) has significantly transformed the field of computational imaging, offering powerful solutions to enhance performance and address a variety of challenges. Traditional methods often rely on discrete pixel representations, which limit resolution and fail to capture the continuous and multiscale nature of physical objects. Recent research from Boston University (BU) presents a novel approach to overcome these limitations.
As reported in Advanced Photonics Nexus, researchers from BU’s Computational Imaging Systems Lab have introduced a local conditional neural field (LCNF) network, which they use to address the problem. Their scalable and generalizable LCNF system is known as “neural phase retrieval”—” NeuPh” for short.
NeuPh leverages advanced DL techniques to reconstruct high-resolution phase information from low-resolution measurements. This method employs a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based encoder to compress captured images into a compact latent-space representation.
🚀 LumenOrbit (YC S24) is building a network of megawatt-scale data centers in space, scalable to gigawatt capacity.
Why we should train AI in space.
Tiny robots much smaller than blood cells could deliver clot-forming drugs where they’re needed most, a study in rabbits suggests. The tech has yet to be tested in humans.
