UT Arlington nanoparticles could provide easier route for cell therapy

New process to help patients with cancer, genetic conditions, neurological disordersUT Arlington physics researchers may have developed a way to use laser technology to deliver drug and gene therapy at the cellular level without damaging surrounding tissue. The method eventually could help patients suffering from genetic conditions, cancers and neurological diseases. In a study published recently by the journal Nature Scientific Reports , the team paired crystalline magnetic carbon nanoparticles and continuous wave

UT Arlington's Nguyen named American Heart Association fellow

Bioengineering associate professor's work concentrates on cellular, tissue engineering researchAssociate bioengineering professor Kytai Nguyen has been elected as a fellow of the American Heart Association, an honor conferred by the national organization’s Council on Basic Cardiovascular Sciences. Nguyen, who joined The University of Texas at Arlington in 2005, specializes in cellular engineering. Her research also involves tissue engineering, drug delivery and stem cell therapies.

Bioengineer studying how to send drugs to lungs through nanotechnology

A UT Arlington bioengineering researcher has teamed with a UT Southwestern colleague to develop a nanoparticle drug delivery system that will help stimulate lung growth and function after partial lung removal or destructive lung disease. Kytai Nguyen, an associate professor of bioengineering , is working on the drug-delivery portion of the project, which is funded through a $3.4 million National Institutes of Health grant through 2016. Nguyen’s work will be underwritten by $440,000 of the larger grant. “We will introduce drugs through inhaled
