Research Interests
Drug delivery, nanomedicine, polymer therapeutics
Overview
Dr. Tatiana Bronich is a trained polymer chemist with an expertise in the areas of material science, drug delivery and nanomedicine. Her research is at the interfaces of polymer, colloidal and life sciences. Her major scientific contributions are in the areas of synthetic and biological macromolecules, polymer micelles and complexes, and drug delivery systems. Of special interest is the design and study of novel types of bio-functional nanostructures utilizing a combination of supramolecular assembly and covalent chemical reactions, and application of these materials in drug delivery to treat cancer and infectious diseases.
