Researchers use nanoparticles to send chemotherapy drug directly to the tumor site The overall five-year survival rate for people with pancreatic cancer is just 6 percent, and there is an urgent need for new treatment options. More than 80 percent of pancreatic cancer diagnoses occur too late for surgery, making chemotherapy the only possible treatment. Scientists from the California NanoSystems Institute at UCLA and UCLA's Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center have developed a...Continue reading

This nanometre-thick graphene film is the most light-absorbent material ever created Graphene is often referred to as a kind of wonder material, due to the amazing properties it displays, such as conduction, super-strength, and flexibility, but for all its vaunted wondrousness, there’s one area where scientists have been struggling to get the nano-material to perform: the one-atom-thick molecular structure of graphene is inherently poor at trapping light. Now a team in the UK...Continue reading

Simple graphene cascade allows unprecedented insights into nanoionics Until now, the phenomenon of nanoscale ionic transport has remained a mystery to researchers. Latest research from the Monash Centre for Atomically Thin Materials (MCATM) at Monash University has now revealed a new, inexpensive and reliable method for studying the way ions move through tiny, nanosized channels. This research could hold the key to applications such as high-power energy storage, efficient des...Continue reading
