Cancer & Physical Sciences Members
The Cancer & Physical Sciences Program unites fundamental chemistry, physical sciences and bioengineering groups that focus on developing cancer-relevant therapeutic and diagnostic agents using nano-scale materials and physical sciences approaches.
Stoddart, Sir Fraser
Professor
Bio
Stoddart is one of the few chemists of the past quarter of a century to have created a new field of chemistry - namely, one in which the mechanical bond is a pre-eminent feature of molecular compounds... [more]
Stupp, Samuel
Professor
Bio
Development of novel bioactive biomaterials for regenerative medicine.
Szleifer, Igal G
Professor
Bio
Professor Szleifer's group works on the development and application of theoretical methodologies to study the interactions between cells and biomaterials. For example, his group aims at understanding ... [more]
Thomson, Regan J
Professor
Bio
Cell and Molecular Immunology and Cardiovascular Disease
Woloschak, Gayle E.
Professor
Bio
Dr. Woloschak is developing for intracellular use a new type of bio-nanocomposite that has novel functional properties inside cells and in vitro. These nanocomposites are composed of metal oxide (TiO2... [more]
