Focus I - Nanotechnology, Imaging and Cancer
|
|
|
Coordinators: François Berger, Marc Janier
This focus area aims to:
- Improve access to micro and nanotechnology: miniaturization, surface modification, microfluidics and nanoparticles;
- Develop imaging and contrast accentuation methods;
- Set up innovative biological analysis tools, ranging from in vitro diagnostics to molecular imaging;
- Contribute to the development of new molecular therapeutic strategies;
- Develop research programs in the field of nanotoxicology;
- Study the social, economic and ethical impact of these new approaches.
The use of nanotechnology aims to provide tools enabling us to detect, identify and treat tumors earlier and less invasively, at the molecular stage. This involves both better understanding oncogenesis mechanisms and developing new, increasingly targeted therapies.
