Albany — Bioscience engineering faculty and students at SUNY Polytechnic Institute are involved in a $1.75 million research project that will use research in space to find new cancer cures.
The project will involve an Israeli company called SpacePharma and is being led by James Castracane, a SUNY Poly professor who leads its nanobioscience department. It is an outgrowth of a larger partnership between Israel and SUNY Poly announced several years ago.
