Many cancer therapies exist, however are burdened by unwanted and severe side effects...
... So we've created a new therapeutic platform for cancer using tiny nanocages called encapsulins, produced in harmless bacteria...
... We've added small molecules that are able to bind specifically to cancer cells to the surface of our encapsulins ...
... We've loaded our nanocages with light activatible cancer killing drugs, called photosensitisers...
... Therefore our nano-vehicles are able to target, and deliver their cargo directly to cancer cells, all while minimising unwanted side effects.
