Abstract
Speedy delivery: Biodegradable and biocompatible polymers and lipids form hybrid core/shell nanoparticles (see picture, left) that show promising in vitro and in vivo results for delivering siRNA. The unique lipid-polymer-lipid nanostructure is elucidated by electron and fluorescence microscopy (right) and provides the delivery system with distinct functional features.
