South Korea made a nanobot swarm that enters tumors and dissolves them from the inside
In a high-precision medical lab in Busan, South Korean researchers have unveiled a new class of cancer-fighting agents: nanobot swarms small enough to travel through the bloodstream and infiltrate solid tumors. These bots don’t deliver drugs — they are the treatment.
Each nanobot is constructed from iron oxide coated with a smart polymer shell. Once injected, magnetic fields guide the bots toward tumor sites. When they arrive, they detect acidic microenvironments specific to cancerous tissue. Upon confirmation, they self-assemble into larger chains, puncture the tumor membrane, and release localized heat through magnetic resonance.
This heat doesn’t burn the tissue — it denatures cancer cell proteins and triggers apoptosis (programmed cell death) without harming surrounding healthy cells. After the treatment, the bots break apart, becoming harmless iron ions that the body absorbs naturally.
Initial rodent trials showed 90% tumor shrinkage in 5 days without systemic toxicity. Unlike chemotherapy, this approach doesn’t depend on circulation or diffusion — the bots act locally and intelligently, like a miniature army targeting only the enemy.
Future versions will carry imaging dyes for simultaneous diagnosis, or RNA payloads to turn off tumor genes. The dream is not just to treat — but to seek, infiltrate, and destroy cancer cell by cell.

That description....sounds more like a very, very, dangerous, bio-weapon candidate......
'looking for development funding'.....to me.


They should contact Bill Fence......that is his name, yes ?
