The Lotsch Lab: Where Nanotoxicology Meets Nanomedicine

At the Lotsch Lab, we investigate the delicate balance between nanomaterial safety and their therapeutic potential. Our research lies at the unique intersection of Nanotoxicology and Nanomedicine, aiming to unlock the benefits of nanoscale technologies while ensuring their safety for human health and the environment.

Welcome to the Lotsch Lab

We study how nanomaterials interact with biological systems, bridging nanotoxicology and nanomedicine. Our goal is to understand these mechanisms to guide safer nanotechnologies and new therapeutic strategies.

Our Focus

Nanotoxicology

Understanding the fate of nanomaterials (NMs) in exposed organisms and the cause–effect relationships of their interactions.

Nanomedicine

Designing effective nanomedicines, studying their pharmacokinetics, and exploring their relevance for clinical translation and disease treatment.

The Intersection

Exploring the nano–bio interface;

Developing relevant cellular and organismal models;

Ensuring precise physicochemical characterization of nanomaterials;

Studying dose-dependent mechanisms of nanomaterial toxicity;
