My focus is on the synthesis and characterization of novel nanoparticulate systems that have the ability to noninvasively monitor and treat cellular processes at the molecular level and lead to new ways of diagnosing and characterizing disease, developing effective therapeutics, and monitoring response to these treatments.  Publications/Creative Works Click here to search for this faculty member's publications on PubMed.  Affiliations  Research Consortia GCC Cluster NanoX  Appointments Title Department / School Institution Assistant Professor Interventional Radiology MD Anderson Cancer Center
