Scientists say xenobots, the world’s first living robots, can reproduce

The scientists who created xenobots, the world’s first living robots, say the life forms are “the first living robots that self-reproduce.”

were microorganisms originally revealed In 2020. The robots were assembled from stem cells from the heart and skin belonging to the African clawed frog. They can move independently for about a week before they run out of energy, and naturally self-heal and decompose.

Scientists at the University of Vermont, Tufts University and Harvard University’s Wyss Institute for Biology-Inspired Engineering published research on Monday, saying they have discovered a new type of biological speciation unlike any other known plant or animal species, according to with a press release. Published by the Wyss Institute.

“People have long believed that we’ve discovered all the ways in which life can reproduce or reproduce. But this is something that hasn’t been noticed before,” said Douglas Blackstone, Ph.D., senior scientist at Tufts University. The University and Wyss Institute that worked on the study.

Scientists say the new research could be useful in terms of use in the medical field.

“If we knew how to tell groups of cells to do what we wanted them to do, then ultimately this is regenerative medicine – this is the answer to traumatic injuries, birth defects, cancer and aging.” Michael LevineThe maps proposed by Michael (Mike) Ted Levine California put incumbents at risk of banning new offshore drilling that must remain in the Build Back Better Act program., Ph.D., co-director of research. All these different problems are here because we don’t know how to predict and control the cell populations you’re going to build. Xenobots is a new platform for our education. ”
