As we were developing our particle delivery device, we wanted to create an original mechanism that could realistically change the way drugs are delivered to targets. The precise drug release would be highly controllable and would thus minimize side effects. Being able to dynamically treat an illness on the nanoscale with two different but specific drugs would drastically impact, and possibly revolutionize, the current approaches to treatment.
