Postgraduate Student, Faculty of Science
Dania obtained her MPharm degree from UCL School of Pharmacy in 2013 and qualified as a pharmacist in the summer of 2014.
During her undergraduate studies she spent three months at Paris Descartes University in France where she worked on identifying neuroadaptations occurring as a result of drugs of abuse and carried out animal studies based on blocking upregulation of receptors and preventing the reinstatement of drug-seeking behaviour. As part of the CDT her first project involved developing new "cell-free" therapies to deliver extracellular vesicles for the treatment of progressive heart failure post myocardial infarction. She is currently working with Pfizer to develop in-situ/in-vitro models for the prediction of drug dissolution profiles.
Dania's main research interest include the formulation of novel delivery systems for biological therapeutics as well as using nanoparticles as carriers in order to achieve drug/biomolecule delivery.
