Dr Shivani Sharma | TEDxManhattanBeach

Exosomes – tiny nanoparticles in our bodies – may offer a new path to curing and managing disease. While first discovered in the 1980’s, a new breakthrough method of studying exosomes using the Atomic Force Microscope, offers scientists the ability to comprehensively study these fragile but powerful particles. A new frontier in microbiology, Dr. Shivani Sharma and other nano scientists are just beginning to understand the important role of exosomes in our body.
