One of the high school students who is about to change the world: American 18-year-old Asian girl using nanotechnology to fight cancer

According to "Commercial Insider" reported on the 10th, Angela Chang is an Asian American, only 18 years old, studying at Monta Vista High School in California, known as "one of the high school students will change the world."

Angela Chang’s favorite item is the universal Swiss Army Knife. She herself is also asking for her own. During her three years of high school, she used nanotechnology to design a photothermal control drug and a multi-functional nanoparticle system that can eliminate some of the tumor cells. This is a new technology for anticancer somatic cell chemotherapy. Angela Chang's project has emerged among many high school students and won the first prize in mathematics, science and technology competitions, winning a prize of 100,000 yuan.

The core of the nanometer system she designed is the delivery capacity of the drug. The nanoparticles can make the drug directly hit the "target", that is, lock the position of the tumor in the body and eliminate the cancer cells. The biggest advantage compared to many current cancer treatments such as chemotherapy is that it minimizes the toxic effects of drugs on the healthy cells of cancer patients.

According to Angela Chang’s mother, her daughter was enthusiastic about scientific research from an early age. In order to work in a good laboratory, Angela Zhang once asked the professor of the Stanford University Medical School to borrow a molecular laboratory. Although young, the professor was infected with her enthusiasm and promised her. In high school, she began to attend various academic conferences and published a large number of papers. "I have been very interested in research on cancer treatment and hope to find a cure for cancer in the future," she said, hoping to continue her studies in the medical field of cancer in future university life.
