Evolvable platform for programmable nanoparticle-based cancer therapies
We are a consortium of seven partners with the shared goal of creating an entirely new nanoparticle design platform capable of autonomously evolving solutions for cancer treatment.
EVO-NANO brings together expertise in computer science, artificial evolution, modelling, microfluidics, and medicine.
Modelling
Build an evolutionary model to simulate all the main aspects of nanoparticle dynamics in the body and tumour environment.
Synthesis
Streamline synthesis of functionalised nanoparticles suggested by the evolutionary model.
Validation
Validate efficacy of artificially evolved nanoparticle designs using in vitro micro-fluidics and in vivo pre-clinical tests.
