Virtual reality is allowing scientists to walk through a breast cancer cell to observe the delivery of nanoparticle drugs, potentially speeding up the drug-design process.
Robert S. Langer, a pioneer of drug delivery technologies and tissue engineering dubbed ‘the most cited engineer ever’, is in Australia for the first time to receive an honorary doctorate from UNSW.
Twins Alex and Douglas Dunn have used a prestigious international fellowship to improve nanoparticles' ability to deliver cancer-fighting drugs directly to cancer cells.
In a world-first, UNSW researchers have developed a nanoparticle that could improve the effectiveness of chemotherapy for neuroblastoma by a factor of five.
