Krishan Kumar works on designing nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems, especially for treating cancers such as lung and breast cancer, as well as neurodegenerative conditions like Alzheimer's disease. His research combines materials science (e.g., lipid, polymer, and gold nanoparticles) with pharmacology to improve how drugs are targeted to specific organs or tumor sites while reducing side effects. He also studies plant-derived compounds and their potential to enhance chemotherapy outcomes.
