Most Engineered Nanoparticles Enter Tumours Through Cells, Not Between them, U of T Researchers Find
January 13, 2020 | University of Toronto researchers have discovered that an active rather than passive process dictates which nanoparticles enter solid tumours, upending decades of thinking in the field of cancer nanomedicine and pointing toward more effective nanotherapies.
December 10, 2019 | Imagine being dropped off at the edge of an urban city with crisscrossing streets and no navigational instructions. The roads often run into dead-ends and are full of pot-holes, the network reception is non-existent, and the buildings aren’t numbered. If you want to get from the edge of the city into the downtown core, the only logical way is to map out your own route.
