Prof. Moghimi has made groundbreaking contributions to the field of advanced drug delivery, nanoparticle engineering, and nanopharmaceutical performance and safety. The work in Prof. Moghimi’s laboratory has employed an interdisciplinary state-of-the-art approach to study disease mechanisms with the aim of identifying realistic opportunities offered by understanding pathophysiolocal processes to the design and engineering of efficient and safe nanopharmaceuticals. Professor Moghimi’s research has advanced fundamental understanding of biological barriers, and particularly the role of innate immune system in relation to nanoparticle performance and safety. Throughout, his work has led to the development of new materials and approaches for treatment of various conditions to include cancer, cardiovascular diseases, immune disorders, and disease of the central nervous system.

Prof. Moghimi has received continuous and extensive funding support from numerous bodies (securing over 25 million Euros in competitive research from National and European Commission FP-7 Programmes as principal investigator and co-investigator), and created a global network of more than 40 renowned scientists at the forefront of experimental and clinical medicine as well as bioengineering.

The latest research activities in Prof. Moghimi’s laboratory are expected to push the boundary of the nanotherapies to a personalized level. Thus, the enabling solutions from Prof. Moghimi’s laboratory is being directed for better management and more effective treatment of diseases and chronic conditions associated with the growing aging population including cancer, neurological disorders (e.g., Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease), cardiovascular diseases (e.g., atherosclerosis), arthritis, and allergy. The focus is not only directed on detailed mapping of nanopharmaceutical “structure-activity” relationships at single cell and molecular levels, but also on long-term concomitant extensive computational network knowledge of genomics and epigenomics of inter-individual variations to nanoformulation performance, and adverse drug and nanomaterial responses.
