Research
Our laboratory creates novel medical nanomachines/devices based on material engineering. Particularly, we have developed polymeric materials for drug and nucleic acid delivery. To realize the nucleic acid therapeutics, nucleic acids need to be efficiently delivered to the cytoplasm of target cells by overcoming various biological barriers. Smart polymeric materials that can exert the desired function in response to the biological microenvironment will enable the creation of nanomachines/devices for successful nucleic acid delivery.
