This app is for used for only educational purposes. By using the Bionic Eye it can help you get a better understanding of what it might be like for someone who is visually impaired. It is placed at the back of the eye to restore the sense of vision for people with impaired vision. ]]> 2017-02-14 16:35:54 UTC https://padlet.com/mark_boian/Biotech_summaries/wish/153775888 Mosquitoes As Biological Weapons https://padlet.com/mark_boian/Biotech_summaries/wish/153776084 Back in World War 2, the Nazis tried using mosquitoes as weapons. They tried to infect the mosquitoes with malaria and release them in the enemy territory.  Only certain species of mosquitoes were used for those experiments. ]]> 2017-02-14 16:36:27 UTC https://padlet.com/mark_boian/Biotech_summaries/wish/153776084 Cloned Cat Glows in Dark https://padlet.com/mark_boian/Biotech_summaries/wish/153776097 Cats are genetically very close to humans.

They inch across the surface of muscle like caterpillars. They are designed to conduct massive surgery or even venture out the world to clear pollution. Researchers designed these biots with 3D printers that are simple to use and only survive around warm fluids. ]]> 2017-02-14 16:36:55 UTC https://padlet.com/mark_boian/Biotech_summaries/wish/153776260 Cloned Cat Glows in the Dark https://padlet.com/mark_boian/Biotech_summaries/wish/153776269 Jellyfish glow in the dark so scientists injected jellyfish protein that glowed to see what would happen.

They created these bots from a 3-D printer. In order for the Biobots to survive, they need to be in warm fluid. ]]> 2017-02-14 16:38:41 UTC https://padlet.com/mark_boian/Biotech_summaries/wish/153777025 ear growth https://padlet.com/mark_boian/Biotech_summaries/wish/153777055

In a new development in tissue engineering, they have grown a human-like ear from animal tissue.

The technique may one day be used to help people with missing or deformed outer ears, they believe.
This was then implanted into a rat whose immune system they had suppressed enabling the ear to grow.
