Australian scientists create new medical role for cockroaches
Australian researchers have developed medicated cockroaches equipped with electronic technologies, injection devices, and miniature cameras, aiming to use them in search and rescue teams to deliver medicines and save victims of disasters such as earthquakes and building collapses. These cockroaches, measuring between 8.5 and 9 centimeters and carrying small backpacks on their backs, are characterized by their flexibility and ability to be directed through neural stimulation via implanted electrical electrodes. The study successfully guided these cockroaches to locate targets on the ground or beneath debris, achieving a 100% success rate in reaching checkpoints and a 72% success rate in delivering medications. They consider that their health and endurance make them a competitive alternative to robots in rescue operations.
