About Share Download Add to

Delivering drugs directly to cancer cells could help reduce the unpleasant side effects of chemotherapy. Now, researchers reporting in ACS Nano have made shape-morphing microrobots that can be guided with magnets to cancer cells. ACS’ Headline Science reveals how these devices travel and release their chemotherapy cargo. “Environmentally Adaptive Shape-Morphing Microrobots for Localized Cancer Cell Treatment” - Jiawen Li, Ph.D., Li Zhang, Ph.D., and Dong Wu, Ph.D. (corresponding authors) You might also like: Headline Science: Ingenious: ACS Spring 2021 Press Conferences - Archived: Chemical & Engineering News Produced by
