Tackling Breast Cancer with Nanotechnology: A Conversation with Sanchita Bhatnagar

In this episode of the “Stories from the NNI” podcast, Sanchita Bhatnagar, Assistant Professor at the University of Virginia, discusses her work using nanoparticles to fight triple-negative breast cancer, an aggressive form of breast cancer in which tumor cells spread to other parts of the body. Prof. Bhatnagar also discusses the significant role interdisciplinary collaboration has played in her research and the importance of mentoring research students by allowing them to be independent while being there for them when they need help.
