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.
Silverman, Richard
Professor
Bio
The primary focus in Silverman's laboratory is basic research into central nervous system disorders, including Parkinson’s disease, cerebral palsy, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, addiction, and epil... [more]
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]
