CIT can broadcast your seminar, conference or meeting live to a world-wide
audience over the Internet as a real-time streaming video. The event can
be recorded and made available for viewers to watch at their convenience
as an on-demand video or a downloadable podcast. CIT can also broadcast
NIH-only or HHS-only content.
Advances in drug delivery are creating new opportunities for cancer therapy. Our early research enabled the development of principles for controlled release of peptides and proteins, paving the way for new treatments for advanced prostrate cancer. We have also created new degradable materials that have led to new treatments for brain cancer. Drug delivery technologies including novel polymers and intelligent microchips promise to create new treatments for cancer and other illnesses. New aerosol designs as well as new nanoparticle delivery systems for nucleic acids will also be discussed.

Abstract:
(CIT): Our early research enabled the development of principles for controlled release of peptides and proteins, paving the way for new treatments for advanced prostate cancer. We have also created new degradable materials that have led to new treatments for brain cancer. Drug delivery technologies including novel polymers and intelligent microchips promise to create new treatments for cancer and other illnesses. New aerosol designs as well as new nanoparticle delivery systems for nucleic acids will also be discussed.
