University of Texas at Austin
Angela Ren is a fourth year PhD student at the University of Texas at Austin College of Pharmacy in the division of Molecular Pharmaceutics and Drug Delivery. Angela works in Dr. Feng Zhang’s lab and her research focuses on investigation of physicochemical properties and drug release mechanisms from long-acting biodurable ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) implants. She is particularly interested in understanding the impact of solid drug dissolution rate on drug release from the implant and drug recrystallization kinetics after thermal processing.
