Targeting Small Molecules to Lymph: Methods and Applications

For the past five years, Dan has been leading programs to develop new oral therapeutics at PureTech Health and its affiliates. These currently include PureTech’s lymphatic targeting program and Entrega Biosciences, a PureTech affiliate, which is developing hydrogel dosage forms for the oral delivery of therapeutic peptides. Dan received a PhD in Medical Engineering from the Harvard-MIT Division of Health Sciences and Technology (thesis co-advisors Paula Hammond, ChemE, Bob Langer, Institute). Subsequently, he spent his postdoctoral fellowship developing nanoparticle vaccines at École Polytechnique Fédérale Lausanne (co-advisors Melody Swartz, Jeffrey Hubbell) in Switzerland.
