Hello, friends! I recently read an interesting information and decided to share it with you. Engineers at MIT have printed a subcutaneous chip that dispenses medication on command via Wi-Fi! 🤯 Imagine sleeping and having the right dose injected into you. This is especially relevant for diabetics who need glucagon like air. The device stores the medication in a 3D-printed reservoir and releases it when needed. I still don't quite understand how this will happen in practice. But nevertheless, it is now being tested on mice, and in a couple of years they promise to use it on humans! I wonder what kind of plastic was printed?🧐 Guys, are you ready to print out your first-aid kit?🤓
