Almost 30 years later, can researchers overcome the limitations of cancer nanomedicine and realize its potential?
Nanoparticles
Quick and Easy Coronavirus Testing
King Abdullah University of Science & Technology
A new rapid nanobody-based coronavirus test can deliver highly accurate results in less than 15 minutes
New Pan-Coronavirus Vaccine Is 100 Percent Effective in Monkeys
Duke University Medical Center
The vaccine protects against SARS-CoV-2, SARS-CoV-1, and bat coronaviruses that could cause the next pandemic
New Promising Antibodies against SARS-CoV-2
University of Bonn
The novel antibodies, called nanobodies, attack different parts of the coronavirus simultaneously
Nanoparticle Vaccine for COVID-19
Stanford University
Initial tests in mice suggest that the nanoparticle vaccine could produce COVID-19 immunity after just one dose
Heat Treatment May Make Chemotherapy More Effective
University College London
Heating up cancer cells while targeting them with chemotherapy was more effective than the chemotherapy alone
Gold Nanoparticles Detect Signals from Cancer Cells
