By training, I am actually a chemist. My Ph.D is from 1996 to 2001. I was doing chemistry. Nano was not a national agenda in the U.S. What ended up happening was that in 2000 or 2001 they started doing the cancer nano program. My training is in chemistry. I know how to make materials. Then I did my post-doctoral training in biomedical engineering, where we are now actually learning to work with tumours, and learning to work with what it means to create a new diagnostic to create new therapeutics. That was two more years of training. Then I moved to the University of Toronto.
