Biography
Imran Saleem is a Reader in Nanomedicine at Liverpool John Moores University, UK. His research interest includes “Developing novel delivery systems for targeting therapeutic agents to their site of action, with particular emphasis on lung diseases via dry powder pulmonary delivery”. He has over 10 years of experience in the area of Micro/Nanoparticle Formulation and Drug Delivery Systems, and has published extensively in peer-reviewed journals, conference abstracts and book chapters. His research group is focused on “The design and development of carriers for delivery of bio-macromolecules including vaccines and drugs”. Currently, his research group is working on the design and development of nanocarriers for pulmonary delivery of pneumococcal vaccine, gene delivery for treatment of COPD and lung cancer. He is currently investigating nanoparticle (NPs) delivery systems and manufacturing nanocomposite micro-particle carriers (NCMPs) for pulmonary delivery.
