Cole W. Tower's research focuses on the stability of pharmaceutical formulations, particularly freeze-dried (lyophilized) antibody drugs stabilized with sugars like sucrose and trehalose, using techniques such as solid-state NMR spectroscopy to understand molecular behavior. Earlier work examined the crystallization and structural properties of polymer materials (block copolymer films). Overall, the work sits at the intersection of biochemistry, materials science, and pharmaceutical formulation science.
