In this episode, we discuss how nanotechnology can be applied to treat cancer. Our guest, Chad Mirkin of Northwestern University, and his colleagues, have developed a cancer therapy that is fueled by nanotechnology. Their technique activates the immune system in a unique way to fight diseases like cancer.
This is the first episode of the Nano Matters podcast! Stay tuned for more episodes.
