Acoustics (a) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 30 Acoustics (a) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Combining laser and ultrasound based molecular delivery strategies for enhanced drug delivery

Overview. This project addresses the critical area of delivering therapeutics to the skin. If successful, the approach will have direct and positive consequences for the treatment of a range of skin diseases, but may also be viewed as a more generic means of drug delivery for treating a much wider range of disease.
