Definition: How can implementing Nanobots in cancer research create a positive outcome for the patient and the future of our world. By establishing different ways cancer is treated and implementing Nanobots. We can learn the outcome of different surgeries and find which one is best.
Purpose: The purpose of this project is to expand on last year’s Nanobot idea. We also want to experience more of the Computer Science and Health field we are now in and are also researching.
Research: In our research, we figured out that nanobots can help computers be a lot faster, and probably will help with cancer and surgery. There already is a bot named neuroArm it helps in neurological surgery by treating the tumor while the patient is in surgery.
Coding: Our code will model the movement and algorithm of the Nanobot as it moves through the body in a cellular level through the cells, and DNA. This will model a great view of what the Nanobot does or what we hope it can do. We will model this in NetLogo we plan on finishing this halfway through the challenge.
Results: We intend on exploring the reaches of Nanotechnology in cancer treatment. We have already researched cancerous tumors but implementing Nanobots I feel like we get a tiny step closer to solving this 10 million piece Rubix cube.
Thank You.
