Drug Delivery
Targeted Drug Delivery
The ability to specifically target cancer while leaving healthy cells untouched has improved patient outcomes while minimizing toxic side effects and patient discomfort. We are developing targeted cancer therapies with the goals of increasing patient survival while decreasing toxicity. The Kelly lab is involved in all aspects of drug discovery from preclinical work to clinical translation.
