Cancer Therapy: Potential Applications of Nanotechnology provides readers with a compendium of all the latest research work in cancer therapeutics, including an emphasis on work in nanotechnology and polymeric nanoparticles. While there have been a large number of ongoing research projects and publications on the treatment of cancer, there is a limited number of books related to nanotechnology, especially those with an emphasis on polymeric nanoparticles in cancer therapy. This title enlightens researchers and students and provides exhaustive knowledge on the topics covered.
Author Biography:
Dr. Surendra Nimesh did PhD in nanotechnology from Dr. B.R. Ambedkar Center for Biomedical Science Research, University of Delhi and CSIR-Institute of Genomics and Integrative Biology, Delhi, India.
