Publisher's Summary:
Tejal Desai, 27, thinks big by thinking small. She is working on using the technology of micromechanical systems (MEMS) in the world of bioengineering. Desai wants to place silicon-etched, millimeter-sized machines in the role of tiny superheroes within our bodies - making them able to carry needed cells into ailing organs while simultaneously protecting the body from attacks from the immune system. So far, she has prototyped a biocapsule for diabetics that will deliver pancreatic cells to raise insulin levels. Desai was selected to Technology Review's list of 100 Top Young Innovators. At the daylong conference announcing those chosen, Audible's John Barth sat down with this under 35, cutting-edge thinker to discuss her work. Technology Review is MIT's magazine of innovation.
