## Description

The Laboratory of Precision and Nanomedicine, based at the University of Tartu, is dedicated to revolutionizing cancer treatment through innovative research and development. With a mission to change the perception of cancer as an incurable disease, the laboratory specializes in creating smart cancer therapeutics that enhance treatment efficacy while minimizing side effects. 

Utilizing advanced techniques such as in vivo peptide phage display screens, the lab identifies homing peptides that selectively bind to targeted areas in the vasculature. These discoveries enable the development of synthetic peptides that facilitate the targeted delivery of drugs, biological therapies, and nanoparticles directly into tumors, significantly improving their therapeutic index. 

The laboratory is at the forefront of developing novel diagnostic tests and precision treatments for various solid tumors, including glioblastoma and multiple carcinomas. Additionally, they are pioneering next-generation peptidic shuttles that enhance drug delivery across the blood-brain barrier, promising breakthroughs in cancer therapy. Their commitment to innovation is further highlighted by successful funding initiatives and ongoing research advancements.
