Cationic nanoparticles have superior transvascular flux into solid tumors: Insights from a mathematical model
(2013)Despite their great promise, only a few nanoparticle formulations have been approved for clinical use in oncology. The failure of nano-scale drugs to enhance cancer therapy is in large part due to inefficient delivery. To ...

Causes, consequences, and remedies for growth-induced solid stress in murine and human tumors
(2012)The presence of growth-induced solid stresses in tumors has been suspected for some time, but these stresses were largely estimated using mathematical models. Solid stresses can deform the surrounding tissues and compress ...
