Nanotechnology: The Transforming Impact of Targeted Delivery in Medecine | SLICE SCIENCE

Here again, nanotechnology is promoted as an enabling technology.  Nano devices can provide a way to automate routine laboratory tests. They can deliver active treatment directly to affected cells, and that means fewer side effects with increased efficiency.

At the Dana Farber Cancer Institute at Harvard, we learn how nano devices can be used to destroy specific cancer cells.  Through nanotechnology, the practice of medicine is evolving from treating disease and illness to a practice that is predictive, personalized, and pre-emptive.

There is a medical future where permanent nano-devices can roam the body to monitor, and provide early diagnosis and take action against diseases. Nanotechnology is a powerful tool for advancing tissue engineering and stem cell therapy.
