Intracellular Transport in Cancer Treatments: Carbon Nanohorns Conjugated to Quantum Dots and Chemotherapeutic Agents
Cancer therapies are often limited by bulk and cellular barriers to transport. Nanoparticle or chemotherapeutic compound intracellular transport has implications in understanding therapeutic effect and toxicity. The scope of this thesis was to study the intracellular transport of carbon nanohorns …

Synthesis, characterization, and evaluation of photo-active amphiphiles for gene delivery applications
… trials. To overcome the obstacles in the cellular uptake and transfection pathways which impede nonviral gene delivery, novel lipids, polymers, and dendrimers are being engineered. Cationic lipid vectors have been widely characterized as gene delivery tools as they electrostatically …
