  My name is Oh, Hyunrim from Korea. I worked to find new active compounds for drug discovery (HCV, HIV, Leishmania) through High Throughput/Content Screening (HT/CS). I am doing research on magnetic nanoparticles for tumor therapy and its medical application.


 Thesis

 Development of medical application system of magnetic nanoparticles for cancer therapy

 Research Interests

  • Tumor targeted nanoparticles for drug delivery system
  • Combination of drug and nanoparticles to enhance therapeutic efficacy
  • Multifunctional Nanoparticles for Cancer diagnosis and imaging
  • Controlling the biodistribution in location and time
