Special issue on IoBNT
At the center of this approach lies an emerging ICT framework, the Internet of Bio-NanoThings (IoBNT), envisioning the heterogeneous collaborative networks of natural and artificial nano-biological functional devices (e.g., engineered bacteria, human cells, nanobiosensors), seamlessly integrated to the Internet infrastructure.

How do you see the internet of bodies and the internet of bio-nano things playing out?
That’s a lot of jargon and fancy words. This will all cost money to develop, licence and implement. Try explaining this to someone without any real biology or technology knowledge. If they don’t really see the point of this then no investor is going to see the point either. What is connecting every human cell to the internet even meant to accomplish?! More on reddit.com

Electrical engineer Ian F. Akyildiz is founder and Editor in Chief of ITU Journal on Future and Evolving Technologies. ITU is a United Nations agency for information and communication technologies.

The IoE (internet of everything) aims to network everything around and even within us, which will lead to interfaces that are spread all the way from macro to nano scales. While several macro scale IoE implementations exist, the advances in nanotechnology and communication engineering paved the way for a proposal for Internet of NanoThings (IoNT) based on synthesized materials, electronic circuits, and interaction through electromagnetic waves.

https://ioe.eng.cam.ac.uk/Research/Research-Areas

Although, IoNT (internet of nano things) systems can be used in a number of scenarios, their biocompatibility remains an issue for intra-body deployment. Thus, the Internet of Bio-Nano Things (IoBNT) proposal was brought forward. Under the IoE framework, IoBNT architecture revolves around establishing the capability to communicate and to network with biological systems, which can be used to perform operations such as intra-body sensing, actuation, and connectivity control.

r/biology on Reddit: How do you see the internet of bodies and the internet of bio-nano things playing out?
February 13, 2025 -

I've been learning about the internet of bio-nano things (loBNT), internet of bodies, and internet of everything.

Specifically, an idea l've seen referred to as the "cell to internet" paradigm, enabled by 6G. As in, human bodies being connected to the internet down to the cellular level, apparently one cell at a time.

I'm wondering how everyone sees this playing out? Who will get access first to connect their bodies to the internet? How many years away are we from intra body wireless nano networks?

I've also learned of a concept known as "IoBNT terrorism" where cells can be "reprogrammed” from a distance which could cause either sickness or death. How many years away are we from having to worry about "remotely reprogramming" cells?

Will people be able to opt out of the internet of bio-nano things?

Thanks for any insights!

This sounds like what I'd expect an AI to describe the future of biological science if it was trained on nothing but the conversations of coked out tech company interns .

December 20, 2024 - The Internet of Things (IoT) has changed the way how we interact with our physical environment, enabling connectivity and communication between physical and virtual entities, e.g., for digital twin applications. However, as we step beyond the IoT, developing the Internet of Bio-Nano Things (IoBNT), where biological and nanoscale entities will be included in our communication networks, includes challenges as well as opportunities.

IoBNT - Internet of Bio-Nano-Things
To realize an IoBNT, multiple communication technologies are combined, including RF-based communication, ultrasonic communication, and molecular communication. The goal is to provide seamless end-to-end communication between nanodevices located inside the body or implanted within it—such as highly miniaturized biosensors—and external monitoring or control units in the context of future 6G+ networks.
