FDA approved the world's first "digital drug" with chip recently, FDA approved its first antipsychotic digital drug, abilify mycote Because patients do not take their medicine on time, they go to the hospital again, which leads to an additional expenditure of 290 billion dollars per year in the United States medical system Abilify mycote is mainly composed of the antipsychotic drug abilify and an embedded sensor When the patient swallows the drug containing the chip, the receptor will enter the body with the tablet and activate, send a signal to the external sensing device, and timely transmit the information of whether the patient takes the medicine, when to take the medicine, and the absorption and metabolism of the medicine to the doctor Washington Examiner http:// examiner.com/fda-approvals-first-of-its-kind-antipsychotic-that-tracks-who-patients-are-taking-it/article/2640584 scientists reveal the new mechanism of cancer cell drug resistance MD Anderson, University of Texas Scientists at the cancer center found and confirmed a new pathway leading to drug tolerance in cancer patients through mouse models and NSCLC cell lines, respectively It has been found that stress hormones may act directly on tumor cells to promote their tolerance to drugs, and β receptor blocker is a well tolerated and cheap drug in human body, which can improve or even reverse this phenomenon Science Translational Medicine http://stm.sciencemag.org/content/9/415/eaao4307 new solid-state batteries charge for one minute, with a endurance of 800 kilometers Fisker, an electric vehicle manufacturer, said this week that its new solid-state batteries can charge cars in one minute, and the batteries allow cars to travel 800 kilometers Fisker's solid-state battery technology can build a large number of three-dimensional solid-state electrodes, the surface area of which is 25 times of that of the plane film solid-state electrode, and the conductivity of its electrons and ions is very high, which can realize fast charging and low-temperature operation The energy density of the solid-state battery is 2.5 times that of the conventional lithium-ion battery It is expected to be mass produced in 2023, and the price may be one third of that of lithium-ion batteries Daily Mail http:// in the future, sweat stains can also be used to unlock the possibility of smartphone fingerprints being copied and face recognition being forged, but in addition, everyone has a specific sweat feature Smart devices can learn from their owners' unique secretions, and the amino acids in sweat can be used to build an individual's amino acid profile One day you may be able to unlock your phone by wiping it The technology can benefit people with disabilities who don't need to remember passwords or put their fingers in specific locations to turn on devices, and it can also improve mobile phone security Mashable http://mashable.com/2017/11/13/biometric-smartphone-security-sweet/?
