Researchers have developed a new type of cell called “cyborg cells” by adding an artificial hydrogel scaffold into bacteria. These cyborg bacteria could potentially act as miniature robots in various fields, such as medicine, environmental cleanups, and industrial production. The study, published in Advanced Science, highlights the benefits of this innovative approach.
