Infos

Genome Editing and Nanotechnology-Based Treatment for Breast Cancers delves deeply into the multifaceted nature of breast cancer. It begins with a thorough introduction to the disease, detailing its histological and molecular subtypes and then moves on to explain methods for early detection and imaging techniques. The book also explores various treatment options, focusing on innovative technologies like genome editing and nanotechnology. In its nine sections, the book probes the elements that contribute to breast cancer metastasis and discusses the potential of genome editing tools for creating tailor-made drugs.

Users will find this to be a crucial resource for researchers, graduate students in cancer research and bioinformatics, oncologists, and anyone seeking to expand their understanding of the field.
