Shi Du's research focuses on designing nanoparticle-based delivery systems to treat diseases such as cancer, liver fibrosis, atherosclerosis, and drug-resistant bacterial infections. This work combines materials engineering with biology to create 'smart' nanomedicines that respond to specific triggers (like light or the body's chemical environment) to deliver drugs, genetic material, or gene-editing tools more precisely to diseased tissue. The lab also explores related topics such as biosensing and immune-based therapies.
