معرفی
Dr Dan Fei is a Senior Lecturer in Pharmaceutics at the Leicester School of Pharmacy, Faculty of Health and Life Sciences, De Montfort University. Her research is centered on the development of advanced drug delivery systems using nanotechnology and biodegradable polymers, with a focus on polymeric thin films, thermal analysis for material characterization, and stability assessment of freeze-dried pharmaceuticals.
Her research interests include:
- Development of drug delivery systems using nanotechnology and biodegradable polymers
- Biodegradable polymeric thin films for drug delivery
- Thermal analysis for pharmaceutical materials characterisation
- Stability characterisation of freeze dried pharmaceutical materials
The body of her published work reflects a strong trend in nanomedicine and advanced materials for biomedical applications. Her research spans molecularly imprinted polymers for sensing, nanobiosensors for intracellular monitoring, enzyme immobilization on nanostructured supports, and degradation analysis of biodegradable polymers like PLGA. Collectively, these works demonstrate a consistent focus on the interface between pharmaceutical science, materials engineering, and diagnostic innovation.
Dr Fei has contributed to professional esteem through peer-refereeing for the MRC Molecular and Cellular Medicine Board (February 2011). While no formal awards are listed, her involvement in research evaluation indicates recognition in her field.
She teaches core pharmacy modules including Pharmaceutics, Formulations, Extemporaneous Dispensing Techniques, and Pharmaceutical Calculations across MPharm, BSc Pharmaceutical and Cosmetics Science, and MSc Quality by Design programs. There is no mention of specific grants or student supervision in the provided text.
Dr Fei is affiliated with the Pharmaceutical Technologies Research Group at DMU, which supports collaborative work in novel drug delivery and formulation science.
