Research Highlights:
Benny's multidisciplinary laboratory focuses on developing innovative anti-cancer therapies and nanotechnology-based drug delivery systems. The research also explores key tumor microenvironment processes and designs selective and personalized monotherapies to optimize drug efficacy while minimizing off-target effects. AI-based approaches use nano informatics to provide tools for personalized drug delivery that can predict parameters for optimal therapies for cancer. The lab also pioneers advanced 3D ex vivo cell models for tumor-on-a-chip applications. Leveraging patient-derived samples and a flow device for precision medicine, this platform facilitates the study of anti-cancer drug activity and toxicity, advancing the development of personalized nanomedicine.
