UNM's new degree is wave of future

Abstract:
In the not-so-distant future, a submarine smaller than a red blood cell will travel through the body of a cancer patient at the University of New Mexico Hospital. Using chemical signals to home in on its target - a tumor - it will deliver a cargo of drugs directly to where they are needed most, killing the tumor and bypassing other organs where they might cause harm.
