ERC success for Lorenzo Albertazzi
The Nanoscopy for Nanomedicine junior group leader was successful in the European Research Council’s 2017 call for Starting Grants, of which just 17 out of the total of 406 have been awarded to scientists working in Spain.
Lorenzo’s project, “Design of Nanomaterials for Targeted Therapies Guided by Super Resolution Imaging” (NANOSTORM), plans to use super resolution microscopy to examine nanomaterials that have potential as therapies for cancer, and understand their interactions with their target: the diseased cells. Doing so will help identify the key principles that are needed to rationally design the next generation of targeted, super-efficient cancer treatments
