Congrats Narmada! Nanoparticle Assisted PhotoThermal Therapy just published in ACS Photonics

Congratulations to Dr. Narmada Naidu (now at EPFL) for the excellent work!

Light can be absorbed in nanoparticles to locally generate heat and thermally ablate tumors. We have developed a comprehensive modeling approach for optimizing this Nanoparticle Assisted PhotoThermal Therapy to maximize damage to the tumoral regions while minimizing treatment time and preserving healthy tissues.

Optimization strategies include choosing precise nanoparticle concentrations and adopting specific spatiotemporal modulation of the input illumination.
