The research team at DGIST developed ciliary microrobots with high propulsion efficiency in highly-viscous fluid environments in the human body such as blood by mimicking the movement of paramecia’s ...

(Nanowerk News) A research team at Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science and Technology (DGIST), South Korea, developed ciliary microrobots for chemical and cell delivery that can be precisely ...

Researchers have clarified the mechanism of rotation of node cilia, which determines the left-right asymmetry of the body. They have elucidated part of the relationship between the ciliary structure ...

PITTSBURGH, Aug. 5, 2015 - Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine have figured out how to objectively quantify the beating action of cilia, the tiny, hair-like projections on ...

Such digital signatures could help doctors more quickly and accurately diagnose ciliary motion (CM) defects, which can cause severe respiratory airway clearance defects and also developmental defects ...

Scientists have developed microrobots with high propulsion efficiency in highly-viscous fluid environments, applying propulsion techniques that mimic the ciliary stroke motion of paramecia. A Korean ...
