Research from Patrick Doyle's team offers a new way to deliver antibodies packaged into microparticles that could be injected with a syringe. This could offer patients an alternative to lengthy & uncomfortable infusions: mit-ki.org/4aHnV27

Thrilled to share the #BBC documentary featuring our technology, #Circulatronics — a new paradigm of #Autonomous, #SurgeryFree #BCI. In “Chris McCausland: Seeing into the Future,” Chris McCausland—an English comedian and actor who lost his eyesight in his early twenties—explores how emerging technologies can profoundly transform human life. The documentary highlights Circulatronics: tiny, sub-cellular-scale, wireless electronics—billion times smaller than a grain of rice—designed to circulate through body fluids, autonomously recognize diseased brain regions, cross blood-brain-barrier and self-implant, eliminating the need for invasive surgery. In this episode, we discuss how Circulatronics could enable: restoration of vision, treatment of devastating neurological diseases, new approaches for terminal brain cancers, and a future where humans could transcend beyond biological limitations! . 🧠 Excerpt of the BBC video: youtube.com/watch?v=GOygvr… 🎬 Full video at BBC iplayer: bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod… 🎥 MIT Video: youtube.com/watch?v=dDcgLM… 📖 MIT news release: news.mit.edu/2025/new-thera… . . . @MIT @medialab @kochinstitute @MIT_nano @mcgovernmit @MITsap #MedTech #Nanoelectronics #Neurotechnology #BCI #DBS #BrainImplant
