I chose this topic because I was interested in researching something that involved technology and medicine. Nanotechnology has opened the doors for innumerable dimensions of research for the betterment of mankind.
Nanotechnology is the study and application of extremely small things that can be used across all the science fields. I researched about the use of nanotechnology in medicine. Nanotechnology in medicine involves implementation of nanoparticles currently being made, as well as longer ranges research that involves the use of manufactured nano-robots to make repairs at the cellular level. The use of nanotechnology in the field of medicine could revolutionize the way we detect and treat the patient’s damage and disease. Interestingly, many things that we never imagined are being created by engineers this very second. One of this exciting invention is Nanoparticles that is between 10 and 300 nm in diameter are just the right size to pass through the gaps in the blood vessels supplying tumors but don’t significantly penetrate healthy tissue. So they load up this nanoparticle with chemotherapy drugs, and it can deliver the drugs to tumor cells without damaging healthy cells.
If someone thinks that they are healthy and in no need of any medical help, such a person can be introduced to an Edible microchip, which has been created using Nanotechnology which diffuses through the cell’s nucleus. These edible microchips consist of a sensor that is connected to the wrist band that the patient wears on
