Ludovic Bourre's profile
What I do
I work on peptide pro-drug development using peptide and photosensitiser used in photodynamic therapy, a promising modality of cancer diagnosis and treatment that utilises tumor specific accumulation of a photosensitiser, followed by irradiation with light at an appropriate wavelength inducing reactive oxygen species.
