Molecular Pharmaceutics at CRS 2023 Annual Meeting
Around 20 members of the Department of Molecular Pharmaceutics attended the Controlled Release Society's 2023 Annual Meeting & Expo in Las Vegas from July 25 - 28, 2023. Of the thirteen abstracts submitted by our department, five received special recognition. This is remarkable considering there were a total of nearly 800 abstracts that were presented at the meeting!
We had three speakers:
Morgan Marsh (Ph.D student, Owen Lab): "Complementation Dependent Enzyme Prodrug Therapy for Targeted HER2 Positive Cancer Treatment.": BioEngineering Focus Group Winner of Bioengineering Focus Group Trainee Award
Dr. Shawn Owen: New and Emerging Technologies for Drug Delivery
Dr. You Han Bae: Journal of Controlled Release Session
