Research Areas
-
Therapeutic Tools
The Larsen Lab creates polymer-based, stimuli-responsive delivery systems that can bypass the blood-brain and blood-nerve barriers to treat various nervous system conditions.
-
Diagnostic Tools
The Larsen Lab works to identify novel biomarkers and create most-appropriate cellular and animal models to help treat various nervous system conditions.
-
Theranostic Tools
The Larsen Lab creates polymer-based, stimuli-responsive delivery systems that can simultaneously treat and diagnose nervous system conditions with imaging.
-
Outreach
The Larsen Lab actively participates in outreach activities to understand barriers to participation and promote involvement of historically excluded populations in STEM activities.
