Marwa G. Elnaggar works on drug delivery systems, developing nanoscale carriers (such as microemulsions, lipid nanoparticles, and gels) designed to transport medications more effectively through skin, nasal tissue, or to specific cells like cancer cells. Her work spans applications including skin conditions (melasma, skin cancer), central nervous system drug delivery, and targeted cancer treatment. This research is applied and formulation-focused, aiming to improve how existing drugs reach their intended targets in the body.
