Artificial Immune System

A new technology is being researched right now by the folks at the university of Nottingham that will potentially create an Artificial Immune System (AIS). Due to the recent development of computer controlled cells that are beginning to be tested on the human body, individuals with a weak immune system now have the opportunity to receive help from artificially intelligent immune system white blood cells. " Its an adaptive system that can be more nuanced in detecting what is dangerous", says Dr. Uwe Aickelin, professor of computer science at the university of Nottingham and leading AIS developer. With technology like this entering the world we can potentially see a massive decrease in life threatening that diseases that were previously a death sentence such as Cancer and AIDS only mime will tell where this technology will lead us in the future.
1. Role of Motivation and Curiosity- The curiosity to help people with weak immune systems has led to the development of the robotic, computer cells.
2. Science is Collaborative- The college of Nottingham is working collaboratively to get this technology running and available to the public.
