A robot that crawls through your innards? Yeah, we’ve been there, done that on a number of occasions, but a new alternative being developed by a team at Imperial College London could reportedly “revolutionize keyhole surgery.” The aforementioned crew has been granted some £2.1 million ($4.19 million) in order to further develop the […]
