Self-assembled microrobot developed at UCLA.

Microbots made of living heart tissue? It's not the future, it's now.

Nanotechnology researchers at UCLA’s Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science earlier this year created the first self-assembled microrobots powered by living heart muscle. Independent Science and Technology resource ScienCentral has created a movie that captures the researcher's work.
