Nano-sized particles are all around us, too small to be seen with the human eye, but what happens when they encounter a biological system? In the Rattray Translational Lab we are interested in studying how these particles behave in the body, so we can design new medicines and understand the environmental impact of these nano-sized materials on living organisms.
