Biographical
Information
Ning Han is an Graduate Research Assistant in the
Departments of Chemical and Biomolecular and Biomedical Engineering at
the Ohio State University. Ning came here in autumn of 2006. Han completed
her master’s courses under the guidance of Dr. Yao (ChE)
at the Zhejiang University in the area of Beta-carotene microspheres.
Her major work was the analysis of the effect of the environmental parameters
on the stability of Beta-carotene microspheres. Ning is a recipient of undergraduate
excellent dissertation award and students scholarship in Zhejiang University.
Current Work
Ning is investigating the ability of controlled release coatings to
improve the biocompatibility of neural prosthesis. Her current efforts
are focused on creating composite drug release systems consisting of
PLGA microspheres (diameter ~20mm) combined with PEG-PLA polymers to
release agents active in the nervous system.
