Research summary
AI-generated

Ashweta Sahni's research focuses on designing and understanding cyclic and bicyclic peptides that can cross cell membranes to deliver therapeutic molecules inside cells, including inhibitors targeting cancer-related proteins. This work spans peptide chemistry, drug delivery mechanisms (such as escaping cellular compartments called endosomes), and anti-cancer compound development. The research combines organic chemistry synthesis with biological evaluation of how these peptides function inside cells.
