Prof. Mostafa A El-Sayed, Regents’ Professor and Julius Brown Chair at the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry in the Georgia Institute of Technology, has well over 755 publications in a variety of fields ranging from the areas of photochemistry, to ultrafast laser spectroscopy, to time-resolved Raman spectroscopy, to formulating what is known as the El-Sayed Rule. One of the main subject areas of Prof. El-Sayed’s research interests is Nanobiomedicine ; he is one of the pioneers in this field. We are sending this perspective in celebration of Prof. El-Sayed’s 85th birthday on May 8, 2018. We would like to encourage the science community to submit their research to Nanobiomedicine . In brief, Prof. Mostafa El-Sayed has demonstrated that using gold nanoparticles and irradiating them with laser beams can kill cancerous cells without harming the surrounding healthy tissues. The concept of photothermal therapy, that he introduced, had been successful in culture cells and living animal models. |
