Secure and Simple: Designing Home Health Devices for Real-World Use

Explore how we can accelerate genetic nanomedicines through regulatory pathways and pave the way for powerful, personalized treatments.

In hospitals across the country, life-saving medical devices hum along, year after year. Many of these machines have been trusted companions for more than a decade—reliable, familiar and, in some cases, irreplaceable. But beneath that reliability can lie hidden danger.

Battelle has developed a new polymer nanoparticle (PNP) delivery system that can target specific cell types, such as neuronal cells. The work, which was recently recognized as the “Best Poster” at the Controlled Release Society 2024 Annual Meeting in Italy, could pave the way for safer, more effective gene therapies for genetic diseases.

At Battelle, our scientists and engineers are developing smarter, more precise ways to get tomorrow’s genetic medicines where they need to go.

Gene therapy has come a long way in the last ten years. In the next decade, achieving efficiencies in its delivery will unlock its full potential.
