Delivery of molecules into cells using carbon nanoparticles activated by femtosecond laser pulses

A major barrier to drug and gene delivery is crossing the cell's plasma membrane. Physical forces applied to cells via electroporation1, ultrasound2 and laser-irradiation3–6 generate nanoscale holes in the plasma membrane for direct delivery of drugs into the cytoplasm. Inspired by previous wor...
