Dr. Ghaleb Husseini

Professor

PhD, Brigham Young University, United States

Ghaleb Husseini's research interests involve sequestering chemotherapeutic agents in polymeric micelles, liposomes and other carriers. The contents of these drug delivery systems can then be released using ultrasonic power to the tumor site, thus avoiding the side effects of conventional chemotherapy. His other areas of interests include non-viral gene delivery, ultrasonic bone-healing and surface modification. He spent a sabbatical leave at the École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne .
