Texas A&M University-College Station · PharmacologyPediatric Drug Delivery Innovations Lab
Mansoor A Khan · College Station, Texas
Research Focus
Dr. Mansoor A Khan's lab focuses on improving medication delivery systems for pediatric patients, particularly in the treatment of HIV and toxoplasmosis. By utilizing advanced 3D printing techniques, the lab aims to create flexible dosage forms that are tailored to children's needs, addressing critical gaps in current medication formulations. This innovative approach seeks to enhance patient adherence to therapy by providing age-appropriate and effective delivery systems.
