Ending ‘Hit And Miss’ Design In Nanomedicine (Medical News Today)
One of the promises of nanomedicine is the design of tiny particles that can home in on diseased cells and get inside them. Nanoparticles can carry drugs into cells and tag cells for MRI and other diagnostic tests; and they may eventually even enter a cell’s nucleus to repair damaged genes. Unfortunately, designing them... »
