In a recent study at the University of Buffalo, it was shown that a worm can be remotely controlled using magnetic fields. This was done by getting nanoparticles tp attach to cell membranes. The nanoparticles in question had the property of heating up in response to a magnetic field. This works to remotely control the worm because the ion channel of the cell membrane will open immediately in response to a certain temperature. In the case of the observed worms it was about 93°F. In humans this response is generated at about 122°F
