Chemistry professor Adam Shuhendler is most in his element when he’s developing innovative chemical technologies that push the frontiers of molecular imaging and sensing research. Now, thanks to the Dorothy Killam Fellowship, he will be working on chemical probes that provide a clearer picture of how cancers form and spread in our bodies at the molecular level.
