The Internet of Bio-NanoThings (IoBNT) concept envisions the connection between biological cells and the Internet. The ultimate goal of IoBNT is to catalyze a revolution in biomedical technologies through advances in molecular communication, integrated systems, bio-nanosensors and synthetic biology to improve human health and quality of life.
PANACEA (a solution or remedy for all difficulties or diseases in Latin), an application of IoBNT, detects the communication within the cells of the body to deduce infection level via a submillimeter implantable bio-electronic device.
