    MEET THE ANTHROBOTS: A NEW LIVING ENTITY WITH MUCH TO TEACH US (17
    MINUTE READ) [6]

    Anthrobots are synthetic biological proto-organisms made of living
    cells with un-edited genomes. They could have many future uses in the
    human body, including laying down pro-regenerative molecules, clearing
    plaque from arteries, healing spinal cord or retinal damage, dealing
    with cancer cells or bacteria in the gut, or informing doctors of the
    status of the surrounding tissues. Anthrobots do not exponentially
    reproduce and just biodegrade at the end of their lifespan. Scientists
    are still experimenting with these lifeforms to get a true idea of
    their capabilities in various problem spaces.
