Goal 1 R&D ProjectsCreating A Society Whose Citizen's Health is Monitored by Remote Control of Intracellular Cybernetic AvatarsJPMJMS2217

Project manager (PM)YAMANISHI YokoProfessor, Faculty of Engineering, Kyushu University

Summary of the project

Intracellular Cybernetic Avatars (hereinafter referred to as intracellular CAs) technology will allow individuals to improve the state of their bodies by external remote control of intracellular CAs constructed of nanometer-scale artificial and natural biomolecules. Remote control of the intracellular CAs can keep people’s bodies in good condition at a cellular level using micrometer-scale cell-cell interactions.

Milestone by year 2030

People who need to know the state of their body can receive appropriate support from doctors and specialists. This technology should allow doctors to monitor people’s health and provide treatment more quickly and effectively than current methods. By enabling remote control of the intracellular CAs, we will modify the target cell removal system which can be controlled by the cells themselves into a system that doctors and other specialists can control to perform examinations.
