 * description

Sensing

 * find site to attach marker to on cancerous cells in metastasis
 * marker should be a beacon for attack cells
 * should make cancerous cells detectable in body
 * stain lipid bilayer, measure decrease in staining? does this work in the body?
 * basement membrane, keeps epithelial cells attached, breaking the layer allows movement, cancerous development?
 * does metastasis happen slowly with a few individual cells, or a massive outbreak?
 * prevent cells from breaking bonds to basement membrane, inhibit movement?
 * break up tumors and remove pieces?

Tracking

 * engineer attack cells to move towards marker
 * marker causes release of certain chemicals, certain structural changes, membrane receptors?
 * attack cells can bind to structure/receptor or detect chemical diffusion
 * attack cells find cancerous cells

Killing

 * asef
 * kill tumor or prevent from undergoing metastasis?
 * kill individual cancerous cells in metastasis within the body?
 * prevent cancerous cells in metastasis from binding to other organs?
