What can nanotechnology do to fight cancer?
Abstract
The marriage of physics, chemistry and biology at the namometric scale, nanotechnology, is a powerful technology which is predicted to have a large impacto on life sciences and particularly cancer treatment. In the following we will show some examples of applications which has already reached clinical treatments as new ideas which may positively influence the understanding, diagnosis and therapy of cancer.
