Scientists have created programmable cyborg cells that can't divide and grow, opening new doors for medicine and environmental cleanup.
Scientists have managed to do something truly groundbreaking. According to a new paper published in
In order for artificial cells to truly be useful, they need to be able to carry out controlled actions. This isn’t easy when the cells can replicate, as they can quickly get out of control. However, by creating programmable cyborg cells that cannot divide and grow, the researchers have discovered a new type of artificial cell that can be controlled entirely.
