About Us

The Louis Family laboratory for targeted drug delivery & personalized medicine technologies 

ABOUT US

In our research group, we aim to improve patients' quality of life and treatment by developing innovative medical technologies. Specifically, we focus on targeted drug delivery systems to treat brain neurodegenerative diseases. Our nanotechnology is designed according to the loaded drug (proteins, gene delivery, and small molecules) and to the brain-targeting region. We also utilize our technology to treat various metastatic cancer types and inflammations and combine it with synthetic biology to develop artificial cells for therapeutic applications. Our lab is headed by Prof. Avi Schroeder, who has years of experience in nanotechnology and personalized medicine technologies. Avi Schroeder is a tenured Professor of Chemical Engineering at the Technion Israel Institute of Technology, where he heads the Laboratory for Targeted Drug Delivery and Personalized Medicine Technologies.

Dr. Schroeder conducted his Postdoctoral studies at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) with Robert Langer and Daniel G. Anderson, and his PhD jointly at the Hebrew and Ben Gurion Universities with Chezy Barenholz and Joseph Kost. Avi is the recipient of more than 30 national and international awards, including being named a KAVLI Fellow, the Intel Nanotechnology, TEVA Pharmaceuticals, and the Wolf Foundation Krill Awards. Avi is the author of more than 70 papers, the inventor of over 20 patents, and the co-founder of multiple startup companies based on these discoveries.
Schroeder is a former member of the Israel Young National Academy of Sciences, and a current member of Israel’s National Council for Civilian Research and Development, and the President-elect of the Controlled Release Society (CRS).
