Project description
The latest development in biomedical applications of magnetic nanoparticles is the combination of diagnosis and therapy in "theranostics," where the same particles are used for, for example, imaging and hyperthermia (a cancer treatment in which particles heat tumor tissue).
This funding will be used to conduct research into the magnetization dynamics of magnetic nanoparticles with the aim of improving their biomedical applications.
