Using Nanotechnology to Fight Cancer
Abstract:
British researchers have gained a great deal of attention by using a technique called nanotechnology to fight cancer. We've talked about nanotechnology before. Here is what the researchers did: they packaged anti-cancer genes in very small particles that are only taken up by cancer cells, leaving healthy cells unharmed.
