"Scientists are making drug development news with their investigations into ways that enable implantable devices to deliver drugs, cutting the wear and care of traditionally delivered pills and injections. Now a Lexington, Massachusetts, drug delivery technology. company MicroCHIPS, has developed a contraceptive implant that can be deactivated and reactivated via wireless remote. The woman, with a remote control, could turn off the implant or with another click of the remote could restart it. According to a report about the device in MIT Technology Review, it measures 20 x 20 x 7 millimeters, implanted under the skin of the buttocks, upper arm, or abdomen. The implant is designed to last up to 16 years."
"Relaying the history of the idea, MIT Technology Review said it originated two years ago when Bill Gates and colleagues visited Robert Langer's MIT lab. (The Langer Lab is an intersection between biotechnology and materials science.) Gates and his colleagues asked Langer if it were feasible to create birth control that a woman could turn on and off and use for many years.
