Nanomedical Research Underway

Fight Aging!

Do you want to live a longer life in good health? Simple practices can make some difference, such as exercise or calorie restriction. But over the long haul all that really matters is progress in medicine: building new classes of therapy to repair and reverse the known root causes of aging. The sooner these treatments arrive, the more lives will be saved. Find out how to help »

CORDIS provides an example of modern research into nanomedicine in the public sector: "A new EU-funded Integrated Project, with a total budget of 26 million euro has become the largest ever project to deal with nanotechnologies. It seeks to develop a new generation of nano-biotechnological devices with therapeutic applications in the field of tissue engineering." You can find more technical details at the CellPROM website - it's fascinating, advanced, forward-looking stuff. These are the sorts of fundamental technological capabilities required for progress towards greatly extending the healthy human life span through nanomedicine.
