Mission Statement

Our goal is to improve upon HIV drug cocktail delivery through the use of a compartmentalized biodegradable pill, creating a more effective form of drug delivery.

Our Project

This project aims to improve on additive manufacturing strategies (3D printing) to develop a compartmentalized and biodegradable capsule with geometry that can be modified to control the release of HIV drug cocktails.
