Dr. Bradley Corr was recently interviewed for a Vice News article covering a new study that used sperm-driven micromotors as targeted drug delivery systems.
The study, published in ACS Nano, noted the possible future implications of such treatments in targeting cervical cancer and other gynecologic diseases. Dr. Corr offered some perspective on possible complications that may arise from using sperm as a treatment delivery system, and how a study like this might lead to better nanoparticle drug delivery systems in the future.
Drug delivery systems are a hot topic of investigation in cancer care right now, specifically the use of nanoparticles and how to better deliver drugs to the appropriate cells.
