Dr Sam Moxon - Nanomedicine in Dementia Research

Dr Sam Moxon, narrates his blog written for Dementia Researcher.

Nanoparticles are small sized (1-100 nm) particles derived from transition metals, silver, copper, aluminum, silicon, carbon and metal oxides that can easily cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and/or produce damage to the barrier integrity by altering endothelial cell membrane permeability. Could this new innovation be the key to targetting new drug therapies to treat Alzheimer's Diseease? Sam explores in this blog for our Tech and Dementia special focus week.
