Technological developments in the racing world health. Now, scientists have successfully developed a robot that can detect super mini size cancer earlier. In fact, this robot is capable of lethal potential of cancer in the bloodstream.
The findings were initiated by a team of medical researchers and actors from Caltech. these nano particles robot can be reported into the patient’s bloodstream. Robots that carry ‘messages’ point of potential therapies to eradicate cancer in the body.

Six years ago, the internet was limited both in what it could do and in who used it. Many people had heard the word but did not have a clue what it was. Today, most teachers have not only been exposed to the internet but also have access at home or at school. In fact, a large number of schools are being retrofitted to place the internet in every classroom. Even more exciting than this is the newest technology: Wireless. A school can purchase a ‘Portable Classroom’. This consists of laptops networked together, allowing students to work at their desks WITHOUT wires. If the laptops are networked to a printer, students can print from their personal computer to the classroom printer. Imagine the possibilities!
