Welcome

The focus in my laboratory is on the synthesis and characterization of biocompatible polymers for medical and dental applications such as drug delivery and tissue engineering. Our polymers are designed to be degradable as well as biocompatible.

Here's a photo taken of my group in May, 2010.
