Tiny nanorobots could enter your body and kill cancer cells in the near future
Briefly

This hexagonal nanopattern of peptides becomes a lethal weapon. To get around this problem, we have hidden the weapon inside a nanostructure built from DNA." - Professor Björn Högberg
By measuring the pH, the robots can identify which areas are cancerous. They stay inactive in areas at pH 7.4 but start taking out cells at pH 6.5." - Professor Björn Högberg
"We have managed to hide the weapon in such a way that it can only be exposed in the environment found in and around a solid tumor." - Professor Högberg
