Café Scientifique Vancouver
July 30, 2019 - 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm
Café Scientifique Vancouver is proud to preset Dr. Vahid Raeesi who will be presenting his research on targeting heat to treat diseases.
Vahid is a nanotechnologist specializing in the design and development of functional platforms for disease detection and treatment. He holds a PhD in nano-biomaterials from the University of Toronto during which, he engineered nanoscale heat generators for precise destruction of different cancer types and antibiotic-resistant infections. He pursued this concept during postdoctoral studies under a nanoparticle-aided radiotherapy program for advanced prostate cancer at Grand River Cancer Centre, Waterloo. His research has been published in high profile scientific journals and featured in UofT News, “The Varsity” newspaper and NatureAsia.
