    • Abstract:
      The article discusses the use of microrobots in the future of medical care, including in drug delivery within the body. An overview of the actuation of medical microrobots through magnetism, including the use of microscale tumbling magnetic robots (μTUMs), or microtumblers, in medical care and the ability to manipulate microrobots with magnetic fields, is provided.
