Current Research and Scholarly InterestsTargeted therapy is one of the current research development in cancer treatment. While nanoparticle (NP)-based delivery agents have the potential to provide safe and effective targeted delivery, all the results to date have been disappointing. Ongoing challenges include: particle instability, rapid clearance by immune system phagocytosis, off-target toxicity, and immunogenicity. My research focuses to to design a delivery vehicle that overcomes current obstacles in the targeted therapy field.
