Soft Capsule Magnetic Millirobots for Region-Specific Drug Delivery in the Central Nervous System

Soft Capsule Magnetic Millirobots for Region-Specific Drug Delivery in the Central Nervous System

Small soft robotic systems are being explored for myriad applications in medicine. Specifically, magnetically actuated microrobots capable of remote manipulation hold significant potential for the targeted delivery of therapeutics and biologicals. Much of previous efforts on microrobotics have been...
