A quick sniff of a nasal spray sends microscopic metal particles into the brain, where they target and destroy the damaging proteins of Alzheimer’s disease. No Alzheimer’s? No pr... Read more
Imagine a swarm of tiny devices only a few hundred nanometers in size that can detect trace amounts of toxins in a water supply or the very earliest signs of cancer in the blood. Now imagine... Read more
Nanopharmaceuticals are beginning to demonstrate their capacity to place the drugs directly in the tumor, where they will do the most good, rather than let them roam freely in the body. The... Read more
Still in its infancy, research and development at the nanoscale has already made an impact. Yet roadblocks to commercialization still exist. Nanotechnology typically describes any material,... Read more
