Multi-objective optimization of tumor response to drug release from vasculature-bound nanoparticles

Abstract The pharmacokinetics of nanoparticle-borne drugs targeting tumors depends critically on nanoparticle design. Empirical approaches to evaluate such designs in order to maximize treatment efficacy are time- and cost-intensive. We have recently proposed the use of computational modeling of nan...
