NanoMedicine

Mission

• Construct stable, non-toxic, targeted nanomaterials-based therapeutic agents that can be used to treat any disease with a genetic basis
• Develop nanosystems capable of the rapid, inexpensive, accurate, sensitive, and selective detection of biomolecular targets at the point-of-care and in unconventional environments (e.g., inside cells)
• Replace conventionally used diagnostic agents and therapeutic probes with nanotechnology-based ones that have the potential to revolutionize the medical field
  
  

Pay-off

• Improve patient care and save lives by enabling earlier diagnoses of and more effective treatments for society’s most debilitating and devastating diseases
