The investigators reported their work in the journal ACS Nano. Dr. Nie and his team chose four proteins to target using monoclonal antibodies. To each antibody, they linked a quantum dot - a brightly fluorescent nanoparticle - that emits light with a unique optical signature. \n\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0027http:\/\/www.nanotech-now.com\/news.cgi?story_id=38343\u0027\u003EFull article\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"Research of Shuming Nie, PhD, Emory University and Georgia Teach featured in Nanotech Now","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Mapping Tumor Heterogeneity with Quantum Dots"}],"uid":"27195","created_gmt":"2010-05-25 00:00:00","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 03:06:39","author":"Colly Mitchell","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","dateline":{"date":"2010-05-22T00:00:00-04:00","iso_date":"2010-05-22T00:00:00-04:00","tz":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"1292","name":"Parker H.
