Biomedical Nanomagnetics: Kannan Krishnan's Review Now Published
June 19, 2010Do you remember the excellent tutorial that Kannan Krishnan gave at our 8th Magnetic Carrier Meeting in Rostock? And now the paper that goes with it is available. Kannan describes in there that biomedical nanomagnetics is a multidisciplinary area of research in science, engineering and medicine with broad applications in
imaging, diagnostics and therapy. Recent developments offer exciting possibilities in personalized medicine provided a truly integrated approach, combining chemistry, materials science, physics, engineering, biology and medicine, is implemented. Emphasizing this perspective, Kannan addresses important issues for the rapid development of the field, i.e., magnetic behavior at the nanoscale with emphasis on the relaxation dynamics, synthesis and surface functionalization of nanoparticles and core-shell structures, biocompatibility and toxicity studies, biological constraints and opportunities, and in vivo and in vitro applications.
