Our group incorporates metabolic engineering and systems biology approaches in combination with biochemical and molecular biology measurements to identify targets and disease biomarkers. To modulate these targets and pathway we are concomitantly developing polymeric-based drug delivery systems.

Professional organizations (POs) are established communities that significantly influence the competencies and values of engineers, but the impact of their interaction with academia on undergraduate education is not fully understood.

Taken together, organic batteries offer the promise of a circular platform free of critical elements.

The oral administration of peptides and proteins remains one of the great challenges in pharmaceutical science.

Development of an in vitro-in vivo correlation between lymph-cannulated animals and the primary transport assay developed herein might assist preclinical programs in translating lipid-based oral modalities to humans. Expansion of the organoid donor set (by species and small intestinal region), combinatorial probing of more lipid stimulation axes (by substrate chain length and saturation), and scaling of monolayer culture could refine the lymphatic assay into a high-throughput screen.
