Unfortunately, both sutures and staples can damage the heart tissue, plus it takes too long to apply sutures. Existing surgical adhesives have their own drawbacks in that they can be toxic, and they typically become unstuck in wet, dynamic environments such as the heart. As a result, infants often require subsequent operations to "replug" the hole. Now, however, scientists have developed a sort of superglue for the heart, that quickly and securely bonds patches to holes. &nbsp;<a href="/web/20140122085640/http://www.gizmag.com/heart-hole-glue-hlaa/30414/" class="readmore_link">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item " data-article="30224"> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="sd_top"> <a class="vsmall" href="/web/20140122085640/http://www.gizmag.com/science/" style="float: left; margin-right: 9px;">SCIENCE</a> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20140122085640/http://www.gizmag.com/plant-based-magnetic-microswimmers-deliver-drugs/30224/">Plant-based magnetic microswimmers to deliver drugs more precisely</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <div>By <a href="/web/20140122085640/http://www.gizmag.com/author/lakshmi-sandhana/">Lakshmi Sandhana</a></div> <div class="date">December 23, 2013</div> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <div class="has_pictures"><a href="/web/20140122085640/http://www.gizmag.com/plant-based-magnetic-microswimmers-deliver-drugs/30224/pictures">2 Pictures</a></div> </div> </div> </div> <a class="noback hero_link" href="/web/20140122085640/http://www.gizmag.com/plant-based-magnetic-microswimmers-deliver-drugs/30224/"> <img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20140122085640im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/microswimmers-2.jpg" title="Bioinspired magnetically propelled helical microswimmers could deliver drugs at the right ..." alt="Bioinspired magnetically propelled helical microswimmers could deliver drugs at the right ..."/> </a> <div class="summary"> <p> If you remember the 1966 science fiction film <em>Fantastic Voyage</em>, you'll recall how miniaturized government agents traveled through blood vessels in a tiny submarine, in their attempt remove a blood clot from a scientist's brain.

The secret lies in the structure of their peel. Scientists have copied that structure, to produce a new type of aluminum composite that's stronger than straight aluminum. &nbsp;<a href="/web/20140122085640/http://www.gizmag.com/pomelo-fruit-aluminum-hybrid/30018/" class="readmore_link">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item " data-article="29928"> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="sd_top"> <a class="vsmall" href="/web/20140122085640/http://www.gizmag.com/robotics/" style="float: left; margin-right: 9px;">ROBOTICS</a> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20140122085640/http://www.gizmag.com/u-cat-sea-turtle-robot/29928/">U-CAT robotic sea turtle set to explore shipwrecks</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <div>By <a href="/web/20140122085640/http://www.gizmag.com/author/ben-coxworth/">Ben Coxworth</a></div> <div class="date">November 26, 2013</div> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <div class="has_comments"><a href="/web/20140122085640/http://www.gizmag.com/u-cat-sea-turtle-robot/29928/#comments">6 Comments</a></div> <div class="has_pictures"><a href="/web/20140122085640/http://www.gizmag.com/u-cat-sea-turtle-robot/29928/pictures">5 Pictures</a></div> </div> </div> </div> <a class="noback hero_link" href="/web/20140122085640/http://www.gizmag.com/u-cat-sea-turtle-robot/29928/"> <img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20140122085640im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/u-cat.jpg" title="Tallinn University of Technology researchers Asko Ristolainen and Taavi Salumäe watch the ..." alt="Tallinn University of Technology researchers Asko Ristolainen and Taavi Salumäe watch the ..."/> </a> <div class="summary"> <p> When was the last time you heard about a sea turtle getting stuck in a shipwreck?
