Gold nanorods exhibit tunable plasmonic resonances throughtout the visible and near-infrared parts of the spectrum.  Their size and shape make them similar to rodlike viruses.  In this talk I will discuss results in which these virus-shaped nanorods have influence on cell migration - when the cells are in 3D constructs and the rods are "far" from them.  What are the mechanisms? Find out at this talk!
