Fluorine-Doped Graphene: A New Frontier in Photodynamic Cancer Therapy

๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿ”ฌ Presented by: Paulo CesarDe Morais

๐Ÿ› Institution: Catholic University of Brasilia, Brazil
๐Ÿ“Œ 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.


๐Ÿ” Key Highlights

๐Ÿ”น Development of halogen-decorated graphene quantum dots
๐Ÿ”น Particle size below 3 nm with ~2% fluorine doping
๐Ÿ”น Enhanced water solubility & improved biocompatibility
๐Ÿ”น Strong green fluorescence with >13% quantum yield
๐Ÿ”น Proven in vitro photodynamic activity

These advancements mark an important step toward safer, more efficient nanomaterial-based cancer therapies.


๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿ”ฌ About the Speaker
