Research Interests
Prof. Rubinstein's research interests are focused on site-specific therapy and real-time diagnostics of inflammation and malignant processes in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. It includes biodegradable polymers (modified polysaccharides) colon-specific drug delivery, site specific therapy of IBD by directed nano-vehicles, mechanistic understanding of affinity processes between saccharide-containing polymers and the intestinal epithelium and optimizing multimodal therapy by remotely eroding vehicles.
Due to his industrial background, Prof. Rubinstein expertise involves consulting activity in the design of bench-to-pilot procedures of drug delivery products.
