Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common, malignant and aggressive brain tumour in adults. Despite the use of multimodal treatments, involving surgery, followed by concomitant radiotherapy and chemotherapy, the median survival for patients remains less...

Journal Article
Styliari, I. D., Taresco, V., Theophilus, A., Alexander, C., Garnett, M., & Laughton, C. (2020). Nanoformulation-by-design: an experimental and molecular dynamics study for polymer coated drug nanoparticles. RSC Advances, 10(33), 19521-19533. https://doi.org/10.1039/d0ra00408a

© The Royal Society of Chemistry 2020. The formulation of drug compounds into nanoparticles has many potential advantages in enhancing bioavailability and improving therapeutic efficacy. However, few drug molecules will assemble into stable, well-def... Read More about Nanoformulation-by-design: an experimental and molecular dynamics study for polymer coated drug nanoparticles.
