Improving drug delivery systems to promote patients’ access to medicine

This research group is dedicated to revolutionizing drug delivery systems and enhancing global health. The focus is on creating practical solutions for real-world healthcare challenges, particularly in developing countries.

One of the team's standout projects is the Inhaled Oxytocin Project, which aims to develop a stable, dry powder form of oxytocin to prevent postpartum hemorrhage, a leading cause of maternal mortality. This groundbreaking research has the potential to save countless lives by making life-saving medication more accessible.
