    I just heard a futurist on Radio 3AW Talk Back, Melbourne speak about nano technology being used in medicine.
    What does that mean?
    Well, nano just means really really really small. (one billionth)
    Think computers that used to take up rooms now can't compete with the power of your smart phone in your pocket.

    The topic was largely on how much nano technology can assist people who have lost control of their limbs. The technology is getting so small it can be deployed in more environments including the human body to assist brain messages to the muscles etc.

    He then mentioned nanobots, and how they have already been tested in mice via the blood stream to target and kill cancer cells and leave healthy cells behind. This is news to me.

    Some questions one might ask.
    - Is this a real thing?
    - How long to commercialisation?
    - Is it complementary to Bisantrene or competition?

    Thanks for your discussion.
