Areas of Interest

My background and research interest are in fundamental, application, technology, and commercialization in biocompatible and green advance nanomaterials such as nanoparticles, nanocomposites, their surface engineering (modification by various state-of-the art techniques, and surface functionalization by controlled radical polymerization), and its related field of study for different applications, including controlled drug delivery for diseases treatment, cancer treatment, theranostic nanoparticles fabrication, gene delivery, nanomedicine, pharmaceutical formulation, tumor- targeted delivery, stimuli- responsive systems, active and passive targeting, polymer chemistry, food nanotechnology and vitamins/ minerals stabilizing in cosmetics which contribute to industry and society. Recently I have focused on applying smart drug delivery systems on 3D microfluidic systems as a state-of-the-art technique to treat glioblastoma and any brain related diseases.
