Student Start-up to Cure Cancer
I think everyone will agree with me when I say Cancer is scary. But there are some truly exciting innovations when it comes to curing these crazy diseases. The most recent one I read about I took a particular interest in. It was created by student start-up called Aura Biosciences and is a really exciting way of delivering cancer killing drugs to the tumors. Since chemotherapy releases drugs to the body, it kills both healthy and hazardous cells. Well, this my friend is where it gets exciting…the Nanosmart particle contains the drugs until they reach the tumor, then releases them! This is different from the other nanodelivery systems because it has the potential to be even more targeted. Pretty cool concept! Check out more here.
