Engineering a Healthier Future

Labroots published a story describing research led by Jonathan Lovell that advances technology for freeze-drying liposome-based COVID-19 vaccines.
Lovell is a SUNY Empire Innovation Associate Professor, and Moustafa Mabrouk, PhD student, both in the Department of Biomedical Engineering. They developed a method for making freeze-dried, thermostable vaccines. The mint green-colored formulation is dehydrated and stable at room temperature (and even higher temperatures) for at least a week.
