Abstract

In article number 1901697 by Hongsoo Choi and co-workers, a drug-loaded micro-robot can be attached to a target micro-tissue by swimming in a corkscrew motion with magnetic torque under a rotating magnetic field. The needle-type micro-robot has the potential to improve targeted drug delivery to a micro-tissue in vitro in physiological fluid environments.
