Some Danish guys just invented the locked box for molecules. It opens at the presence of a combination of chemicals, which can be picked by design. It's biotolerable, so you can put drugs into the chemicals and the drugs won't be released before the boxes arrive at a place inside the human body where chemicals will unlock the boxes. This can be in a certain organ, or near a certain problem.

Maybe the next generation will be to make the boxes contain insulin, and then make the box open when needed... :-)
