US scientists create first-ever ‘living robots’

Researchers in the US have built the first ever “living robot”, or xenobot, by engineering bits of frog embryo to behave like “living, programmable organisms,” an advance that may lead to computer-designed “life forms” capable of delivering drugs into the human body, clean up radioactive waste, collect microplastics in oceans or even scrape out plaque from arteries.
