Scientists have developed a tiny robot prototype to that could help fight disease in the future

The robots are modeled after African trypanosomes, bacteria that can hide their flagellum.

Blood clots, cancer, and damaged brain cells - these are the last words anyone wants to hear at the doctor's office. They're also the stuff that scientists are hoping to be able to fight one daywith nanotechnology.

A newstudy released todayin the journal Nature Communications details just how scientists are hoping to transform modern medicine with very tiny robots.

Selman Sakar fromEPFLand Hen-Wei Huang fromETHZ have worked together to create prototypes of nanosized robots that could actually enter human bodies. While they haven't yet tested these little robots in people, they hope to do so soon. Perhaps, in the not too distant future, the nanosized robots might do things that are too microscopic for doctors to currently perform and are too sensitive for common drug therapies to handle.

FIRST PICTURE - Munich maniac was 'mentally ill loner obsessed with shooting sprees': Iranian-German killer, 18, had 300 rounds of ammunition in rucksack as he went on murderous rampage which ended with nine dead before he killed himself

Police have said today that the 18-year-old loner who gunned down nine people during a rampage through Munich last night was deranged and obsessed with guns, but had no links to ISIS. They said Ali David Sonboly (centre) had no known links to Islamic State. Police who searched his room (bottom right) found newspaper clippings on attacks including an article entitled 'Why do students kill?' His father works as a taxi driver and his mother works in German department store Karstadt. Police are investigating a fake Facebook advert which offered free food at the McDonald's (top left), where he killed the first of his nine victims with a 9mm Glock pistol. Terrified shoppers were seen running for their lives from the Munich Olympia Shopping Centre after hearing gunshots (bottom left). Witnesses said that the gunman screamed 'I'm German' and 'Allahu Akbar' before shooting at children. A total of 21 people were taken to hospital as a result of the incident - ten are fighting for their lives in critical condition and 16 are still receiving medical treatment.

Dresses that ruled Britain: The secrets behind the Queen's historic outfits revealed in a new exhibition at Buckingham Palace

Her bright suits and bold hats put the Duchess of Cambridge’s nude court shoes in the shade. The Queen may have turned 90, but there is little doubt she is still the ultimate style icon, as a new exhibition at Buckingham Palace from tomorrow reveals.

Her Majesty wears jewel-coloured outfits to ensure she can be seen by her subjects - and even uses them as a tool of diplomacy. Who knew that she dresses to echo the flag of the country she is visiting so as to flatter her hosts, and sometimes even has their national emblem sewn into them? 

Fashioning A Reign: 90 Years Of Style From The Queen’s Wardrobe shows off almost 80 of her outfits and 62 of her iconic hats. Here, we take a look at a glorious selection...

THE ONE-SHOULDERED DRESS 

Made from duchesse satin, lace, sequins, diamante and beads, this asymmetric crinoline-skirted gown of pale yellow and turquoise - made by Sir Norman Hartnell, her favourite couturier of the time - is a perfect example of the Queen’s Fifties fashions

Made from duchesse satin, lace, sequins, diamante and beads, this asymmetric crinoline-skirted gown of pale yellow and turquoise - made by Sir Norman Hartnell, her favourite couturier of the time - is a perfect example of the Queen’s Fifties fashions.

Worn on a state visit to the Netherlands in 1958, it features a one-shouldered bodice, the line of which is continued by a gathered panel of satin across the skirt.

The dress is appliqued with tape lace forming stylised floral motifs and is richly embroidered with heavy beading.

This, says the Royal Collection, is another perfect example of the Queen’s unique championing of British couture.

Black therapist says police shot him with his hands raised

A black therapist who was trying to calm an autistic patient in the middle of the street says he was shot by police even though he had his hands in the air and repeatedly told them that no one was armed.

The moments before the shooting were recorded on cellphone video and show Charles Kinsey lying on the ground with his arms raised, talking to his patient and police throughout the standoff with officers, who appeared to have them surrounded.

"As long as I've got my hands up, they're not going to shoot me. This is what I'm thinking. They're not going to shoot me," he told WSVN-TV from his hospital bed, where he was recovering from a gunshot wound to his leg. "Wow, was I wrong."

The shooting comes amid weeks of violence involving police. Five officers were killed in Dallas two weeks ago and three law enforcement officers were gunned down Sunday in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Before those shootings, a black man, Alton Sterling, 37, was fatally shot during a scuffle with two white officers at a convenience store. In Minnesota, 32-year-old Philando Castile, who was also black, was shot to death during a traffic stop. Cellphone videos captured Sterling's killing and aftermath of Castile's shooting, prompting nationwide protests over the treatment of blacks by police.

Mark Cuban rips Donald Trump in brutal tweetstorm during RNC speech

Mark Cuban went on a brutal tweetstorm Thursday night slamming Donald Trump during the latter's official acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention.

In a series of tweets on Thursday evening, the billionaire owner of the NBA's Dallas Mavericks mocked the Republican nominee's presentation and rhetorical style, and reassured people that Americans were "nothing like" Trump.

"@realDonaldTrump should have worked harder to make his TelePrompTer reading skills great again," Cuban wrote in one tweet.

Cuban went as far as retweeting Sen. Bernie Sanders' criticism of Trump's rhetoric, which the Vermont senator characterized as bigoted.

Here are the crazy things that this guy did to become the first person to catch all of the Pokémon in the US

Brooklyn-based Nick Johnson, who happens to be a friend of mine, has publicly declared himself to be the first Pokémon Go player to catch all of the 142 Pokémon that we know are available in the US.

According to the original video games that Pokémon Go is based on, there are 151 total monsters. We know that there are 142 you can catch in the US, plus three more exclusive to certain international regions, but nobody can account for the whereabouts of the other six.

Johnson's journey to Pokémon mastery took a lot of doing and some long nights, he tells Business Insider, but it was worth it to fulfill his childhood dream of catching 'em all.
