• StopEndoPain: Therapeutics for Endometriosis Associated Pain
  Endometriosis is a common disease affecting 10% of women globally, making it one of the largest unaddressed indications in the world. It is associated with infertility and significant, frequently debilitating pain. Understanding its pain mechanisms is critical for targeted endometriosis treatments. We are developing in vitro models of ectopic endometrial lesions and studying connections to...
• ENDOx: Early Diagnosis, Imaging, and Treatment of Endometriosis
  Endometriosis, a debilitating condition affecting approximately 190 million women and girls during their reproductive years, is marked by the abnormal growth of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus, leading to acute pelvic pain and long-term fertility issues. Currently, diagnosing the disease requires surgery and treatment often involves hormonal suppression with unwanted side effects. In advanced stages,...
• Metal-Organic Framework Coated Fe3O4 Nanoparticles for Magnetic Hyperthermia and Imaging in Endometriosis
  Endometriosis is a debilitating condition affecting more than 11% of women during their reproductive years, where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside of it, causing pain and fertility issues. While current treatments predominantly focus on alleviating the pain associated with endometriosis, a comprehensive cure remains elusive. A recent study found that...
