According to a report by the U.S. "Newspapers of the Chinese Press in New York City" on May 22, a new scientific study published in the Science Daily shows that robots have been used in the production of human mini-organs. For the experimental study of disease resistance.
According to a report from the US Fox News Network, scientists at the University of Washington School of Medicine explained in a statement that they have been able to use robotic systems to automatically grow stem cells into organisms, and that the new mini-organs grown can be used for drug discovery or basic research. field.
One of the principals of the study, Assistant Professor of Nephrology at the University of Washington School of Medicine, Benjamin Freedman, described the development as a new secret weapon against disease. Other participants in the study included Dr. Stefan Czerniecki and Nelly Cruz from the Friedman Laboratory, and Dr. Jennifer Harder, assistant professor of internal medicine from the University of Michigan Medical School. .
The report pointed out that in the research, scientists tested the use of robots to develop mini-kidney organs, including polycystic kidney disease model organs. In addition, robots are programmed to analyze the mini organs they cultivate.
Prior to the introduction of robots, scientists generally used medical research by growing cells into flat sheets, but did not allow cells to behave in their true behavior. The introduction of robots also enables researchers to mass-produce mini-organs faster than ever before. The researchers were able to get the robots to successfully handle liquids. The stem cells were placed in plates containing 384 micro-walls. In 21 days, the robot system eventually turned them into kidney organs.
Scientists are excited about the speed and efficiency with which robots can handle this task. Fredman said: “In the past, setting up such an experiment would have required researchers to spend a full day, and the robot can now complete it in 20 minutes. In addition, the robot will not feel tired and will not make mistakes, no doubt. To repeat tedious tasks like this, robots do better than humans." (Zhou Simin Tian Ruizhe)
