From KurzweilAI.net— It seems like nanotech might be the magic bullet for cancer. This technique uses gold nanospheres to fight melanoma.
Targeted nanospheres find, penetrate, then fuel burning of melanoma PhysOrg.com, Feb. 2, 2009 Hollow gold nanospheres equipped with a targeting peptide find melanoma cells, penetrate them deeply, and then cook the tumor when bathed with near-infrared light, University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center researchers have shown.
