Can you see me now ?

A microchip the width of a pencil eraser shows promise in eye repair.

The microchip implant replaces the dead rods and cones. The implant is dotted with several thousand micro-photodiodes, which react to light and produce small electrical impulses in parts of the eye’s retina.

“The good thing about this device that we’re using is that it doesn’t have any wires to it," Narfstrom told LiveScience. "So it’s like a small disk that is very inert and not so traumatic to the eye that we slide into the retina.”

Artificial Gut

"British scientists have built an artificial stomach ..... physically simulates human digestion.

The model gut's focus on the physical and chemical reactions that take place in the stomach promises to provide a more detailed understanding of food structure and its impact on digestion.

...device may ultimately help in the development of super-nutrients.

"It's so realistic that it can even vomit."

If only you could eat what I've eaten with your gut.
