Microneedle delivery systems for minimally-invasive patient diagnosis/monitoring

Queen’s University Belfast School of Pharmacy
In this project, a novel type of integrated system will be investigated that will by-pass the skin barrier. On its surface will be multiple microscopic needles that pierce the skin without causing any pain – the sensation is said to feel like a cat’s tongue or sharkskin. Read more
 Supervisor: Prof R Donnelly
 Year round applications  PhD Research Project  Self-Funded PhD Students Only

Microneedle delivery systems for next-generation antibody therapeutics

Queen’s University Belfast School of Pharmacy
Microneedle arrays are minimally-invasive devices that painlessly, and without drawing blood, penetrate the skin’s stratum corneum barrier. Read more

Synthetic Protein-Transporters for Enhanced Transduction Activity

Queen’s University Belfast School of Pharmacy
Intracellular protein delivery is key to probing important cellular processes and developing advanced biotherapeutics. However, protein trafficking into the cell, and more specifically to the cytosol remains a significant challenge. Read more

Does one size fit all for antimicrobial delivery via nanoparticles

Queen’s University Belfast School of Pharmacy
Antimicrobial resistant bacteria are a growing problem and new ways are needed to target bacterial infections more efficiently. One way in which bacteria can avoid therapeutics is via intracellular infection, where they hide within our own cells. Read more

Regulation of CaaX protein processing

Queen’s University Belfast School of Pharmacy
USP17 is over-expressed in a range of primary tumours including NSCLC, breast, colorectal, cervical, ovarian and osteosarcoma and its depletion has been shown to block the growth of cells from all these cancer types, as well as the migration of a range of cancer cells (NSCLC, breast, ovarian, osteosarcoma).    .
