Imagine that instead of useless fights over politics more people would be working on nanoparticles curing cancer tumors. Or at least get some more sleep, which also helps learning and wellbeing.

Tiny nanoparticles, far smaller than the width of a human hair, might help the body’s own immune system fight tumors, a new study shows. In experiments with mice, the nanoparticle-based therapy not only wiped out the original targeted breast cancer tumors, but metastases in other parts of the body as well. Human clinical trials with the new therapy could begin within the next several months, researchers say.
