Isolating Extracellular Vesicles and the Future of Nanomedicine: Dr. Adva Krivitsky, Acytronix
Manage episode 445386303 series 3469528
Will we, in the future, be detecting diseases using extracellular vesicles?
Will these diagnostics replace MRI or CT?
In this episode, you’ll hear about
- the personalized medicine of the future
- what is nanomedicine
- how to isolate pure extracellular vesicles
- what are extracellular vesicles
- and how they compare to stem cell treatments
My guest today, Dr. Adva Krivitsky, is a co-founder and the CEO of Acytronix. She’s both a biologist and a chemist by training and completed her PhD in nanomedicine: polymer therapeutics, RNA delivery, and cancer research.
Acytronix is a Swiss startup that developed a portable microstructured electrochemical device to isolate extracellular vesicles in less than 10 minutes. These extracellular vesicles can be key in detecting and treating diseases–more gently–in the future.
