Major surgery is traumatic and risky, but often the only choice for the most serious of diseases that affect older people. In this study, we aim to provide doctors with a means to avoid major surgery and extend the capabilities of doctors to diagnose and treat patients using non- and minimally-invasive procedures: a powerful micromotor carrying its own power supply and a special flagellar propeller to swim within the vascular and digestive systems of the human body to perform tasks via remote control. We also aim to understand the mechanisms underlying the operation of our motor system and flagellar motion in fluids to assist in the understanding of twisted blade structures and propulsion in fluids on the micro-scale.

大手术具有创伤性和风险，但对于影响老年人的最严重疾病，大手术往往是唯一的选择。在这项研究中，我们的目标是为医生提供一种避免大手术的方法，并扩展医生使用非侵入性和微创手术来诊断和治疗患者的能力：一个携带自己电源的强大微电机和一个特殊的鞭毛螺旋桨，它可以在人体的血管和消化系统中游动，通过远程控制来执行任务。我们也旨在了解我们的运动系统和鞭毛在流体中的运动机制，以帮助理解扭曲的叶片结构和在微观尺度上的流体推进。
