For millions of Americans with cancer, the side effects of chemotherapy and other treatment drugs can be devastating. But new drug-delivery research based on nano- and microtechnology from Tel Aviv University might provide much-needed relief, as well as more effective cancer treatment. http://www.physorg.com/news154282816.html Nanotechnology Thu, 19 Feb 2009 16:20:45 EST news154282816 (PhysOrg.com) -- Researchers have been puzzled in recent years by observations that drug-releasing stents (mesh-like tubes implanted to hold patients' coronary arteries open) can increase the likelihood of blood clots and heart attacks. Now, a mathematical model developed by MIT engineers can predict whether particular types of stents are likely to cause life-threatening side effects. http://www.physorg.com/news150473094.html Other Sciences Tue, 06 Jan 2009 14:04:54 EST news150473094
