Modulight Spotlights: LASER-SHARP RESEARCH – May 2026

Modulight Spotlights: LASER-SHARP RESEARCH – May 2026 The research spotlight goes this month to Nimit Shah and the team from Dr. Girgis Obaid’s Lab Molecular Imaging and Optical Nanotherapeutics at University of Texas, Dallas. They developed and evaluated light-activated, verteporfin-containing liposomes for pancreatic cancer. This cancer is notoriously difficult to treat and more effective therapies are [...]

Modulight Spotlights: LASER-SHARP RESEARCH – June 2025

Chen-Hua Ma et al. ​​Optical Therapeutics & Nanotechnology Laboratory at University of Maryland combined photoimmunotherapy with ethanol ablation to achieve improved drug retention and light penetration, especially important for treating pigmented organs like liver and pancreas. Modulight’s ML7710 laser was used for both therapeutic activation of the nanoconstruct, as well as for theranostic monitoring of the process.
