Description

Heterometallic nanosheets with ultra-high MRI signals and sensor capability. Quantifying drug release in deep tissue is vital for advancing drug delivery systems, ensuring precise dosage and timing for safety and efficacy. In situ monitoring drug release at molecular level in body is challenging due to the limited accessibility and sensitivity of currently available tracking and imaging tools. This project aims to engineer sheet-like heterometallic nanomaterials with ultra-high MRI signals, serving as the tools for quantitatively monitoring drug delivery process and release profile in deep tissue. Expected outcomes include new insights into the mechanisms behind MRI signals amplification and the creation of advanced tools for precise molecular sensing, driving innovation in materials and biomedical technologies..
