Nanoparticle Assisted Drug Delivery Technology

This project is closed.

This project looks at how different nanoparticles can be used to disrupt the barriers to diffusion of drug therapies when they are topically administered. We are also interested in how environmental aerosol nanoparticles may also compromise these important barriers to exogenous substances.

I'M INTERESTED IN THIS PROJECT. WHAT SHOULD I DO NEXT?

The Office of Undergraduate Research recommends that you attend an info session or advising before contacting faculty members or project contacts about research opportunities. We'll cover the steps to get involved, tips for contacting faculty, funding possibilities, and options for course credit. Once you have attended an Office of Undergraduate Research info session or spoken to an advisor, you can use the "Who to contact" details for this project to get in touch with the project leader and express your interest in getting involved.

Have you tried contacting professors and need more help? Schedule an appointment for additional support.
