Luisa Russell, Ph.D.
This program supports the development and demonstration of broadly applicable molecular materials to enable new paradigms of human health.
Emphasis:
The emphasis is on the development of molecular materials and associated computational models for biomedical intervention.
Projects might focus on:
- elucidating important engineering design rules or key foundational principles underlying future engineering, including the use of computational methods
- prototyping or redesigning platform technologies
- characterizing (in vitro, ex vivo, or in vivo) broadly applicable technologies and prototypes
NIBIB interests include but are not limited to:
- lipid nanoparticle coatings for evading the immune system
- supramolecular polymers for targeted protein degradation
- drug conjugates for targeted drug delivery
