Microparticles for controlled delivery of multiple drug molecules 
(in collaboration with Dr Gareth Williams, UCL SoP)
In many therapeutic senarios, it is necessary to administer multiple drug molecules in order to elicit an effective therapeutic response. For example, certain types of cancer, require the administration of cytotoxic drug cocktails that result in severe side effects and compromise patient compliance significantly. In this project, we exploit electrohydrodynamic methods to synthesize polymeric microparticles of complex texture and architecture in order to use them as drug reservoirs that carry multiple drug molecules. These microparticles allow the simultaneous delivery of different drug molecules in a single platform and could potentially lead to more precise targeting of cancers without affecting healthy tissue regardless of their complex molecular cargo.
