HMS researchers were part of a team that created BIND-014, a cancer-fighting nanoparticle. Omid Farokhzad, HMS associate professor of anaesthesia at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, helped found the bioscience firm that created the nanoparticle. Robert Langer, HMS senior lecturer on surgery, helped develop the technology. John Abramson, HMS lecturer on health care policy, is also quoted.
