Combating oncologic diseases is the vital problem now facing Ukraine. To solve it, a working group that includes scientists of the Institute of Biochemistry, the Institute of Experimental Pathology, Oncology and Radiobiology under the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, as well as their partners of the Institute of Macromolecular Chemistry under the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic has been formed of late.

The purpose of the joint project is to study the biological activity of surface-modified iron oxide nanoparticles. The implementation of this project will allow the researchers to create highly efficacious, low-toxic antitumor drugs.
