The Potential of Carbon Nanotubes to Diagnose and Treat Brain Tumors is Being Explored
The potential of carbon nanotubes to diagnose and treat brain tumors is being explored through a partnership between NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and City of Hope, a leading cancer research and treatment center in Duarte, California. City of Hope researchers hope to boost the brain's own immune response against tumors by delivering cancer-fighting agents via nanotubes.
