Fungi bursting from the bodies of zombies act as puppeteers, positioning them to infect entire communities. This premise, which is the basis of the video game and HBO show, "The Last of Us" seems hard to imagine. Yet, "killer fungi" kill millions every year.

In a new study published in Advanced Science, Rice University chemist James Tour and collaborators have developed molecular machines that are just as good at combating infectious fungi as they are at killing antibiotic-resistant infectious bacteria and cancer cells. Based on the work of Nobel laureate Bernard Feringa, these nanoscale compounds move in a single direction when exposed to visible light, causing a drilling motion that allows them to bore into the surface of cells and kill them.
