Interferon and Virotherapy Casey, Kyle, Mark, Wyt

What is Virotherapy? New form of cancer treatment Utilizes viruses to target cancer cells Safer than modern cancer treatments Targeted treatment

Why Viruses? Common and well understood Natural Variety Size Programmable

Relation to Nanotech Size in Nanometers –Avg. 10 and 300 Nanometers Related to Gene Therapy Emphasis on DNA and proteins “Drug Delivery”

Interferon Present in healthy cell Prevents viral reproduction Alerts immune system Lacked by cancerous cells

Our Model

Materials Practicality Schematic The Construction Battery LED Resistor

Our Model Virus Normal Cell Cancerous Cell

Our Model Scale Disparity –Virus to Cell –Cancerous Cell to Normal Cell

Our Model Purpose –Magnets –LEDs

The End
