Research Field
    			Research Interests: 
Developing druggable delivery systems and advanced dosage forms of biologic medicines 
Recent inventions: 
-        Sustained-release microspheres of delicate protein drugs in native form and highly simplified production engineering; 
-        Phase-transition microneedle patches for efficient transdermal delivery of proteins; 
-        Nano-encapsulation of delicate proteins in native form; 
-        Uni-molecular polyplexes formed form from a networked cationic polymer of customizable size and pH-responsive degradability; 
-        Functionalization of polyplexes with a self-assembled unilamella membrane of rationally designed a tri-block copolymer for systemic delivery of nucleic acids.
