Researchers from the IN²UB have received a Llavor grant from the Generalitat de Catalunya to develop an innovative nanometric system for the transport of drugs that facilitates their efficient administration while mitigating these toxic effects.

A highlighted collaboration between NanoPharmaMed & NanoPhotoElectro & NanoMagnetics Research Areas to develop a drug nanocarrier controlled by light, with applications in cancer therapy and diagnosis

The project, that recieved a Llavor grant from the Generalitat de Catalunya, has potential applications in cancer therapy, but also in its diagnosis, will be carried out by a multidisciplinary collaboration, led by Dr. Ana Belén Caballero (Nanoscience and Bio-Inorganic Chemistry (nanoBIC)), with researchers from Micro and Nanotechnology and nanoscopies for Electronic and Electrophotonic Devices (MIND) and Group of Magnetic Nanomaterials.
