Nanotechnology Today

Well, now that you understand why nanotechnology holds so much promise lets go over a few applications of nanotechnology being used today. 

Nanomedicine

Nanomedicine is the application of nanotechnology to health, regarding the treatment and detection of disease. The link below addresses targeted chemotherapy with the use of nanocarriers. Nanocarriers, much like the one to the right, loaded with cancer fighting drugs are able to recognize cancerous cells and apply the drugs directly to tumors. For more information on this press the link below.
