1. Interferon and Virotherapy Casey, Kyle, Mark, Wyt

2. What is Virotherapy? New form of cancer treatment Utilizes viruses to target cancer cells Safer than modern cancer treatments Targeted treatment

3. Why Viruses? Common and well understood Natural Variety Size Programmable

4. Relation to Nanotech Size in Nanometers –Avg. 10 and 300 Nanometers Related to Gene Therapy Emphasis on DNA and proteins “Drug Delivery”

5. Interferon Present in healthy cell Prevents viral reproduction Alerts immune system Lacked by cancerous cells
