Undergrad is first co-author on design for fast-disintegrating drug delivery
Emmy Hsiung '23, a fiber science major in the Department of Human Centered Design, is the first co-author on a recent paper on the use of nanofibrous webs for fast-disintegrating drug delivery. She has been working in Prof. Tamer Uyar’s NanoFibers and NanoTextiles Lab since her first year at Cornell.
“Research is rewarding when things work out but there are definitely challenges to get there,” said Hsiung.
Ondansetron is an antinausea drug. By embedding the
