报告简介：Engineered nanoparticles, such as silica, iron oxide and their composites have been applied as various drug delivery systems, conventionally as “transporters” to deliver drug molecules with a focus on controlled release. Understanding the fundamental relationship between structure and property of nanoparticles holds promise in the design of advanced systems, or “transformers”, with unprecedented functions that cannot be obtained before. In this presentation, we will demonstrate how the rational design of nanoparticles contributes to advanced delivery and therapeutic applications, such as DNA, RNA and enzyme delivery, vaccine formulation, cancer therapy and immunotherapy.
