Nanotech: A Journey of Discovery From Lab to Life

Dr. Iris Sonia Weitz

Designing Functional Nanosystems for Human Impact

We are embarking on a journey of discovery, synthesizing copper, dyes and drugs based nanosystems within our laboratory. Through characterization, surface modifications, and an exploration of their altered properties, we aim to unlock their potential as effective carriers for cancer therapies and as sensitive sensors in human environment.
