MIT researchers develop nanodevices to treat brain cancer

MIT researchers have developed injectable nanodevices that can be magnetically activated to target and kill brain cancer cells without damaging adjacent healthy tissue. The MIT Media Lab’s HITMAN (short for highly localized electric field-induced tumor therapy using magnetically actuated nanoantennas) technology employs small nanoantennas to create localized electric fields strong enough to initiate cellular dysfunction, […]
