Compiled by BioPhotonics staff

The bright nanoparticles known as Cornell dots could light up cancer cells in PET optical imaging, and the technology, recently approved as an “investigational new drug” by the FDA, is headed toward clinical trials in humans. For the first time, scientists have reported an advanced comprehensive characterization of Cornell dots. The report, published in the June 13 issue of the Journal of Clinical Investigation, was a collaborative effort between Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, Cornell University and Hybrid Silica Technologies, a Cornell business startup.
