Smartphone 'orders' body to treat diabetes quoting : "BBC"

The fusion of biology and technology was used to control blood sugar levels in mice with diabetes. They were genetically engineered to manufacture drugs that control blood sugar levels such as insulin - but only in response to light. Their ultimate goal is a fully automated system that both detects sugar levels and then releases the right amount of therapeutic chemicals. The scientists needed to take tiny drops of blood to know how high the blood sugar levels were so they could calculate how much drug to release inside the animal.
