DR ROBOT WILL SORT YER HEAD

Nanotech injected for brain bleeds

- NICK FORBES

TINY robots that can be injected into our bodies could "open new frontiers in medicine".

Boffins showed the technology could be used to treat bleeds in the brain caused by aneurysms.

In lab tests using model aneurysms and rabbits, the team engineered magnetic nanobots made up of blood-clotting drugs encased in a coating designed to melt at precise temperatures.
