Nanoparticle Tumour Uptake Illustration

A scientific illustration for a University of Waterloo research group studying how nanoparticles reach and enter tumours.

Project overviewNanoparticle tumour uptake

The figure compares tumours that are sensitive and insensitive to the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect, which nanomedicines rely on to accumulate in tumour tissue.

We drew the blood vessels, cell types and nanoparticles in a clear side-by-side layout with a labelled legend, so readers can follow the biology at a glance.
