Vicomtech-IK4, participating in a leading research project for cancer therapy
21.10.2008
Vicomtech-IK4 participates in the European project NANOTHER, in which nanoparticles used as a diagnostic tool or a therapeutic agent for cancer will be developed. This project, coordinated by GAIKER-IK4 -our partner in the IK4 Research Alliance- includes 18 top-level partners from 8 countries as the critical mass required to achieve ambitious projects objectives. Vicomtech-IK4 participates in the functionalisation and pre-clinical evaluation of the nanoparticles in-vivo using imaging systems, such as MRI, SPECT, PET or fluorescence based imaging.
