Pinkerton Research Group

Developing responsive soft materials for bio-applications

Welcome to the Pinkerton Research Group at NYU Tandon

Based in NYU Tandon's Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering Department, the Pinkerton Research Group focuses on developing responsive soft materials for bio-applications ranging from controlled drug delivery to medical imaging.

We are dedicated to creating highly engineered nano-structured biomaterials to address unmet needs in medicine, developing scalable processes to synthesize these complex biomaterials, and training the next generation of chemical engineering leaders in academia and industry.
