    A smart chip using TNT (Tissue Nanotransfection) by reprogramming skin cells is able to generate any type of cell for treatment. The TNT bio-chip can deliver large molecules such as DNA in the cells on the surface of a tissue that may propagate quickly to all cells in skin and muscles leading to the formation of new blood vesicles and difficult to reproduce cells such as neurons.
