This researcher works on developing delivery systems for RNA-based medicines, especially mRNA and gene-editing therapies, using engineered polymers, lipid nanoparticles, and other nanomaterials. Much of the recent work focuses on improving how mRNA and related molecules are transported into cells and specific organs for applications like cancer vaccines, CAR-T cell therapy, and other immunotherapies. The publication record also includes some unrelated work on food science topics such as packaging and freshness monitoring, suggesting either collaborative or interdisciplinary activity.
