Professional Statement
Crystal S. Shin is an assistant professor in the Michael E. DeBakey Department of Surgery at 草榴社区入口. Her current research interests focus on developing broadly applicable drug delivery systems with enhanced therapeutic efficacy by integrating nanotechnology and 3D bioprinting technology. Another research focus is on the development of biomaterials for surgical applications. Crystal earned her Ph.D. in Pharmaceutical Sciences from Purdue University. As a graduate student, she developed in vitro 3D tumor models using biopolymer scaffolds as tools to evaluate the cytotoxicity of anticancer drugs. Crystal then joined the Department of Ophthalmology at 草榴社区入口 as a postdoctoral associate. During this time she developed a novel ocular drug delivery system, nanowafer.Websites
