Home < NANOMA-collaborationOverview
The objective of this work is to develop a novel drug delivery system for breast cancer treatment under Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Navigation. The idea is to exploit the use of magnetic gradient fields in the MR scanner to propel and track the drug coated nano particles simultaneously.
Team
This is a collaborative project involving investigators based in the US and Europe. The expertise of the team includes design and fabrication of nano/micromechanical systems, image processing, navigation algorithms, robotics, modeling and control of smart systems and MR physics. The team comprises of:
- Constantinos Mavroidis (Northeastern University, USA)
- Antoine Ferreira (Ecole Nationale Supérieure d'Ingénieurs, France)
- Christian Dahmen (Carl v. Ossietzky University, Germany)
- Noby Hata (Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, USA)
- Jayender Jagadeesan (Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, USA)
- Panagiotis Vartholomeos (National Technical University of Athens, Greece)
Events
