      We are actually trying to figure out how to do it at the moment. The system is going to be wireless, but it would be good to be able to stop it in a location of importance, to maybe be able to deliver a drug or take a tissue sample. But so far there is no solution. The gut tissue is quite sensitive, so you can’t use anything that might damage it.
