Microscopic 3D Printed Robots May Help Deliver Medication Within Bloodstream
While the research going on at ETH Zurich has been going on for years, many of us may find the idea of 3D printed micro-robots circulating medicine to targets inside our bodies to be quite a shocking and amazing idea. Headed in two teams by Professors Bradley Nelson and Christofer Hierold, the scientists have found a way to coat magnetized fabricated micro-actuators to work as cargo transporters within the body. Without the method they use, which is like microscopic 3D printing, they would not be able to make these micro-robots a reality.

Below is a rendering of the micro-actuators:
