Artist's conception of nanoscale particles: at left, a sphere covered in twisted, hair-like strands; at right, a cross-section of the sphere that reveals layers of strands around an interior ball of drug particles — An artist’s rendering of Optimeos’ nanoparticle system. Developed in Robert Prud’homme’s lab, the system is a vehicle for delivering medications to precise locations in the body or the interior of cells to treat myriad diseases, including cancer and diabetes.
