RE: TIL - Synthetic Biology Could Create Safer Vaccines
Cool. What do you think about little tiny robots working in our bodies to fix things? Will it be as great as it sounds. Or realistic?

People are already working on it. I suspect it will happen and it will work. The question is really when. I'd say we are at least 20 years away from anything but the most basic nanobots but technological breakthroughs could accelerate that a lot.
It will happen though.
I also suspect we will see more synthetic micro-organisms being put to use too perhaps on a faster timeframe.
Initially these will be repurposed existing bacteria and the like but eventually they might be completely synthetic.
The lines between technology and biology will gradually blur as the century progresses.
Cool thanks for the interesting article
Youre welcome:)
