Research summary

Yongchao Su studies how protein-based drugs (biologics) and other pharmaceutical formulations behave at the molecular level, using techniques like nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and microscopy to understand stability, aggregation, and delivery. Much of the work focuses on practical challenges in drug manufacturing, such as protein stability in concentrated formulations, contamination from packaging materials (like silicone oil or zinc), and lipid nanoparticle structure relevant to drug delivery systems. This research bridges chemistry and pharmaceutical science, aiming to inform better design of injectable and other biological drug products.
