TINs Webinar: Nanoparticle formulations for therapeutic nucleic acid delivery

The development of mRNA based vaccines delivered in lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) has led to a surge of interest in the possible use of LNP mRNA formulation as a treatment for a range of other diseases. During this webinar, Prof. Steve Hart from the Department of Genetics & Genomic Medicine, will introduce nanoparticle technologies and the design and production of mRNA for their use in the development of therapeutics. This is part of the webinar series by the UCL Therapeutic Innovation Networks (TINs) to highlight UCL’s Research Infrastructure and Capabilities that enable effective translation of products toward patient/public benefit. The series aims to encourage multidisciplinary collaborations across departments. Academics from the UCL biomedical community are invited to share subjects of interest from their research expertise and interact with research fellows.
