Delivery of chemotherapy drugs specifically to cancer cells raises local drug doses in tumors
and therefore kills more cancer cells while reducing side effects in other tissues, thereby …

Nanomedicines, while having been approved for cancer therapy, present many challenges
such as low stability, rapid clearance, and nonspecificity leading to off-target toxicity …

A long-standing challenge is how to formulate proteins and vaccines to retain function
during storage and transport and to remove the burdens of cold-chain management. Any …

To date, only several microporous, and even fewer nanoporous, glasses have been
produced, always via post synthesis acid treatment of phase separated dense materials, eg …
