[PROJECT] POTENT - Engineering Discoidal Polymeric Nanoconstructs for the Multi-Physics Treatment of Brain Tumors
ID: 616695
Start date: 2014-07-01, End date: 2019-06-30
Despite significant advances in chemotherapy, the effective treatment of malignant masses via systemically injectable agents are still limited by insufficient accumulation at the biological target (<< 10% injected dose per gram tumor) and non-specific sequestration by the ret...

[REPORT SUMMARY] Mid-Term Report Summary - TRANS-NANO (Advancing the Study of Chemical, Structural and Surface Transformations in Colloidal Nanocrystals)
The broad aim of this proposal is to investigate chemical and structural transformations in nanomaterials. There are multiple reasons for doing this. First, when materials are shrunk to nanometer sizes, they behave differently than when they are in the macroscale size, so...
