癌症是一种非常狡猾、适应性强的疾病。从事医学研究和教育工作的保拉•哈蒙德认为，要打败癌症，我们需要全新的、强有力的进攻方式。哈蒙德同她麻省理工学院的同事一起，制造了一种纳米粒子，尺寸只有头发的百分之一，能对付最致命且具有抗药性的癌症。让我们进一步了解这种分子武器，同哈蒙德并肩作战，共同抗击我们共同的敌人——癌症。

抗击癌症的新式武器

Aggressive, drug-resistant cancers can outsmart even the most advanced treatments by using genetic mutations to survive. A new approach uses molecular engineering to create nanoparticles, one one-hundredth the width of a human hair, designed to slip past the body’s defenses and attack tumors from within. In animal trials with triple-negative breast cancer, these nanoparticles not only halted tumor growth but even caused tumors to shrink or disappear. The strategy offers hope for personalizing cancer treatment and tackling even the toughest cases.
