معرفی
Alf Garcia-Bennett is an Associate Professor in the School of Natural Sciences at Macquarie University. His research focuses on the development of nanomedicine technologies, including mesoporous silica-based drug delivery systems, plasmonic nanoparticles for biosensing, and advanced biomaterials for cancer therapy and tissue engineering. He leads projects such as the ARC Training Centre for Facilitated Advancement of Australia's Bioactives (FAAB) and investigations into next-generation immunotherapies through novel adjuvant designs.
- Projects: FAAB (2022-2027), Next Generation Adjuvants (2020-2025), Multi-functional SEM for High-throughput Analysis (2017-ongoing)
- Key Research Areas: Nanoparticle drug delivery, protein corona dynamics, transdermal drug penetration, 3D cancer metastasis models, and plasmonic biosensors.
His work integrates materials science with biomedical applications, with notable contributions to the design of porous silica platforms for controlled drug release, plasmonic nanostar technologies, and experimental models for cancer micrometastasis. Collaborations span institutions globally, emphasizing translational research in bioactives and nanomedicine.
