 Dear Colleague,
On behalf of the UC San Diego School of Medicine and UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center, it is our privilege to invite you to participate in Applications in Nanomedicine Series 1: New Strategies and Innovations to Understand, Treat, and Monitor Disease. This unique webinar series brings expertise from many fields at UC San Diego and it is intended to demonstrate how nanotechnology can enhance the diagnosis, monitoring and cutting edge treatments of cancer. At UC San Diego we have built a program that incorporates nanotechnology in cancer care and we would like to educate you on this new discipline. This course will illustrate applications of  nanotechnology in cancer treatment that are soon to be available in a clinic near you.
This series is divided into modules which can be viewed separately or one can participate in the full series to get the complete picture on how incorporating nanotechnology is changing cancer treatment.
Topics:
-
Understanding Nanomedicine – From Evolution to Impact
-
Catalyzing a New Frontier – Centers for Cancer Nanotechnology Excellence
-
Use of Nanoparticles for Suppression of Metastatic Disease
-
Detection of Cancer Related Nanoparticulate Biomarkers Directly from Blood
-
Molecular Imaging for Diagnosis and Therapy
-
Development and Application of DNA Nanoparticle
This year's course is especially pertinent to the practice of medicine and for practitioners who take care of cancer patients in 2010 and is intended for primary care, internal medicine, general practice, surgeons and all other interested healthcare professionals. Members from the research, academic and industry sectors will also benefit from this course.
This course is a recorded series of lectures which can be watched from the comfort of your home or office and on-demand to suit your schedule. We would love to get your feedback, questions and interest in new applications that may be pertinent to your practice of medicine.
