Using precisely #engineered structures assembled from nano-size materials to deliver potent tumor-fighting medicine to the #brain through #nasal drops. The novel delivery method is less invasive than similar treatments in development and was shown in mice to effectively treat #glioblastoma by boosting the brain’s immune response.

Nasal drops fight brain tumors noninvasively

Glioblastoma tumors form from brain cells called astrocytes and are the most common kind of brain cancer

We may be at an inflection point along that path when it comes to #engineered #structures whose #mechanical properties are unlike anything seen before in nature, also known as mechanical #metamaterials.

Metamaterials can stifle vibrations with intentional complexity

Researchers have forged a new path to vibration isolation that could help absorb shocks in a variety of applications, including vehicles, buildings
