🏛 Institution: Catholic University of
Brasilia, Brazil
📌 Keynote Title: Prospecting fluorine-doped graphene in photodynamic therapy
Event
name -2ndEdition of International Cancer and Precision Oncology Conference
Photodynamic
therapy (PDT) is gaining momentum as a precise and minimally invasive cancer
treatment. Prof. Morais introduces a novel class of fluorine-doped graphene
quantum dots (F@GQDs) designed to overcome key limitations in conventional PDT
materials.
🔍 Key Highlights
🔹 Development of halogen-decorated graphene quantum
dots
🔹 Particle size below 3 nm with ~2% fluorine doping
🔹 Enhanced water solubility & improved
biocompatibility
🔹 Strong green fluorescence with >13% quantum
yield
🔹 Proven in vitro photodynamic activity
These
advancements mark an important step toward safer, more efficient
nanomaterial-based cancer therapies.
