Viral Nanoparticles (VNPs): Tools For Applications in Biomedicine. NanoTecNexus. Presented by author and scientist, Nicole Steinmetz, PhD. The use of nanomaterials has the potential to revolutionize materials science and medicine. Currently, a number of different nanoparticles are being investigated. Viral nanoparticles (VNPs) derived from plant viruses, such as the Cowpea mosaic virus and Potato virus X, can be regarded as naturally occurring nanomaterials.
