ARTIFICIAL LIFE

Artificial life - Wikipedia

Artificial life (often abbreviated ALife or A-Life) is a field of study wherein researchers examine systems related to natural life, its processes, and its evolution, through the use of simulations with computer models, robotics, and biochemistry.[1] The discipline was named by Christopher Langton, an American theoretical biologist, in 1986.[2] In 1987 Langton organized the first conference on the field, in Los Alamos, New Mexico.[3] There are three main kinds of alife,[4] named for their approaches: soft,[5] from software; hard,[6] from hardware; and wet, from biochemistry. Artificial life researchers study traditional biology by trying to recreate aspects of biological phenomena.[7][8]

Worked under a microscope, they bind these active components (heart cells) and passive (skin cells) together, making use of the inherent tendency of the cells to adhere to each other. The data were fed into an evolutionary algorithm running on a supercomputer after looking at the interactions between the skin and the heart cells. Using said info, the algorithm was able to produce millions of different configurations of cells to check the desired outcome.

A SCALABLE PIPELINE FOR DESIGNING RECONFIGURABLE ORGANISMS

Most technologies are made from steel, concrete, chemicals, and plastics, which degrade over time and can produce harmful ecological and health side effects. It would thus be useful to build technologies using self-renewing and biocompatible materials, of which the ideal candidates are living systems themselves. Thus, we here present a method that designs completely biological machines from the ground up: computers automatically design new machines in simulation, and the best designs are then built by combining together different biological tissues. This suggests others may use this approach to design a variety of living machines to safely deliver drugs inside the human body, help with environmental remediation, or further broaden our understanding of the diverse forms and functions life may adopt.


The curious case of xenobots part 1 - Patenting of living machines

Xenobots have recently featured in the mainstream media for being the world's first living machines and for being capable of self reproduction. Xenobots were developed by scientists at the University of Vermont, Tufts University, and the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University. Xenobots are made from frog cells (Xenopus laevis). When individual skin and heart muscle cells are removed from their native embryonic microenvironments and reassembled in a specific fashion, they self-organize into a functional morphology that exhibits distinct behaviours from the genomically specified default. In other words, the frog's skin and heart cells no longer function as skin and heart cells normally would (as individual components of a tadpole's body), but rather they become an entirely new independent organism that utilizes their unique morphological characteristics to enact tasks.

BENEFITS OF NANO MACHINES BEING INJECTED INTO YOUR BODY
october 30, 2017

https://www.azonano.com/article.aspx?ArticleID=4661

Nanotechnology has vast potential to transform the field of medicine. By creating nanoscale machines small enough to transverse inside the blood stream, disease and traumatic injuries can be diagnosed and treated with increased speed and sensitivity. An important advantage of nanotechnology is the ability to inject large amounts of nanomachines within a few milliliters of solution. The utilization of nanomachines through injection into the body has been proposed for improving post-accident life saving interventions as well as new methods of infection treatment.
