My current research interests are separated into three primary fields: (1) Developing, characterizing, and applying different targeted nanomaterials for use in hyperthermic therapy of various cancer systems using a non-invasive oscillating magnetic field; (2) Improving nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) and imaging (MRI) through the development of hyperpolarization methodologies, which temporarily improve NMR and MRI signals by several orders of magnitude through enhanced nuclear spin alignment; and (3) Determining the effects of electronic nicotine delivery systems through benchtop chemical analysis, in vitro cell cultures, and in vivo mouse models. These multidisciplinary projects interconnect the fields of physics, chemistry, biology, and biomedicine, and span from basic science to pre-clinical studies.
