Dr Rizwan is interested in novel formulation strategies for delivering pharmaceuticals to the brain. She and her lab are interested in two different routes; firstly via the intranasal route, and secondly across the blood-brain barrier.
Her research focus is investigating the formulation and physicochemical characterisation of lipid and polymer-based nano- and microparticle drug carriers. She is also trying to gain a better understanding of the biological basis of nanoparticle-mediated drug delivery across the healthy and diseased blood-brain barrier, and the biological basis of nose-to-brain drug delivery.
