L. James Lee's research spans two distinct areas: engineering extracellular vesicles (small particles released by cells) and RNA molecules for delivering therapies to treat conditions like ischemic tissue damage, osteoarthritis, lung injury, and cancer, as well as materials science work on polymer composites and nanomaterials such as carbon nanotube and nanofiber coatings. This combination suggests a lab that bridges biomedical engineering, nanotechnology, and materials science, with applications ranging from disease detection and treatment to industrial coatings and composites.
