Discovery Projects
Grant Activity:
Virus-inspired nanoparticles based on polyion complex micelles
Purpose:
Viruses are nature's nanoparticles that have evolved over millions of years into intelligent nanoparticles. The unique structure of viruses with their patchy surface has inspired the design of a new drug carrier by employing the power of polymers to self-organize. The project aims at mimicking nature’s nanoparticles with intelligent polymers while enabling the design of a platform that can entrap therapeutic proteins and enhance their delivery. The focus will be to gain in-depth understanding on the polymer self-assembly process in order to design a synthetically robust system that can be applied to various payloads. As a result, novel nanoparticles with virus-inspired structures for the delivery of therapeutic proteins will be created.
