A multi-university research team led by Virginia Tech University Distinguished Professor of Chemistry David G. I. Kingston and his collaborators Professor Susan Bane at the State University of New York (SUNY) Binghamton and Professor James P. Snyder at Emory University has succeeded in enhancing the structure of paclitaxel (Taxol) to make it more effective in killing cancer cells.
