Vinod Labhasetwar, PHD, is a Professor in the Department of
Biomedical Engineering, Lerner Research Institute at the Cleveland
Clinic, where he leads the Cancer NanoMedicine Program, a
collaborative effort jointly sponsored by the Department of
Biomedical Engineering and the clinic's Taussig Cancer Center. Dr.
Labhasetwar's research interest is in translational nanomedicine.
His laboratory investigates various nanosystems for drug/gene
delivery in cancer therapy, stroke, cardiovascular conditions, and
other age-related disorders. In addition, his group investigates
magnetic nanoparticles for imaging applications. Dr. Labhasetwar
has published over one hundred peer-reviewed articles and book
chapters. He has several U.S. and foreign patents on drug delivery.
Diandra L. Leslie-Pelecky, PHD, is Associate Professor of Physics and Astronomy and a member of the Nebraska Center for Materials and Nanoscience at the University of Nebraska – Lincoln. She works with nanostructured magnetic materials having applications in biomedicine, magnetic recording, and permanent magnets, as well as with fundamental understanding of disordered magnetic systems. She has forty peer-reviewed articles and book chapters.
