Nanotechnology and Diagnosis and Treatment of Cancer
The Siteman Center of Cancer Nanotechnology Excellence (SCCNE) at Washington
University, in collaboration with the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
and the Alvin J. Siteman Cancer Center, provides a research and clinical resource
in the Midwest for both the fundamental exploration of nanotechnologies applied
to cancer and also their translation, commercialization and application in the
clinical environment.
Funded by a five-year, $16 million grant from the National Cancer Institute,
the center fosters integration among the physical, biological and clinical sciences.
It truly is an interdisciplinary effort designed to move nanomedicine research
forward.
