Seminarios 2023 del Departamento de Física de la Materia Condensada: “Multifunctional therapies based on magnetic and photoactivated nanoparticles”.- Viernes 31 de marzo
El viernes 31 de marzo de 2023 a las 12:30 h se celebrará una nueva sesión de los Seminarios del Departamento de Física de la Materia Condensada. El seminario de título “Multifunctional therapies based on magnetic and photoactivated nanoparticles” será impartido por Ana Espinosa, del Instituto de Ciencia de Materiales de Madrid.
Resumen: Nanoparticles are used as heating sources in magnetic and photo-induced hyperthermia therapies for effective treatment of oncological diseases in biomedicine. Interestingly, therapeutic effects have been observed even when there is no visible increase in macroscopic temperatura due to localized heating of the nanoparticles. Assessing the initiation of thermal doses and quantifying potential side effects resulting from high local temperatures, such as damage to healthy cells in tissue, is crucial when evaluating the local heating effects produced at the Surface of nanoparticles. In this work, we examine the efficacy of global and local heating effects under magneto-and photo-thermal effects, in combination with other therapeutic methods, in various biological environments.
El ciclo de Seminarios del Departamento de Física de la Materia Condensada cuenta con la colaboración del Instituto de Nanociencia y Materiales de Aragón, INMA, instituto mixto del CSIC y la Universidad de Zaragoza y la Facultad de Ciencias de la Universidad de Zaragoza.
