This week, executive chairman of Izon Science, Hans van der
Voorn, presented a professor at the Indian Institute of Technology-Bombay with
a device that could change the way nanoparticles are delivered to their target.
The tool could help deliver cancer drugs, like chemotherapy, directly to tumors, without damaging the rest of your body. This could also mean less side effects, producing a better
quality of life.
Izon Science’s Hans van der Voorn says, “We’re very pleased to be contributing to Prof. Banerjee’s very important research work into controlled release drug delivery. This research could lead to the development of high value added products that could really make a difference to people’s wellbeing worldwide, as well as to the Indian economy. This device doesn’t
just mean a breakthrough in drug delivery, but also sets the precedent for how
companies are working together to build better relationships.
India and New Zealand aren’t the only ones who are combining
innovation and research skills from across the globe. Check out our exclusive
interview with Michael Kaufman, Vice President, Pharmaceutical Sciences,
