New tumor-shrinking nanoparticle to fight cancer, prevent recurrence

Mayo Clinic researchers in basic and clinical science are constantly studying and developing new techniques and technical advances in neurosurgery and neurology. Research includes studies of cancers of the brain and nervous system (neuro-oncology), developmental and regenerative neurobiology, and other areas.

The team at Mayo Clinic has the ability to carry therapeutic options through several different stages — from their inception as ideas to safety and efficacy testing and their development as valuable treatments. Their efforts ensure that Mayo Clinic remains on the leading edge of patient care. Read more about neurosurgery research.
