Dr Kamaly and her research group uses bioinspired approaches to synthesise targeted multi-functional polymeric nanomedicines capable of changing their surface or core properties in response to local or up-regulated disease markers for stimuli-responsive and spatiotemporally controlled biological drug delivery. These polymeric nanomedicines are synthesised using nanopolymerisation reactions in confined droplets. They also investigate nanomedicine bio-efficacy using biomimetic models with controlled environmental parameters for testing nanoparticle physicochemical properties. This facilitates a more dynamic biological mechanistic insight between nanoparticles and target cell populations.
