Nanomedicine. Infectious diseases. A nanomedicine research lab at the School of Pharmacy, University of the Western Cape in Cape Town, South Africa. Our focus is the development of therapeutic nanomedicines for infectious diseases, with a particular focus on tuberculosis .

Work is ongoing in the following areas: Development of nanoparticle based immunotherapies for drug sensitive and drug resistant forms of tuberculosis Development of inhalable particles for treatment of tuberculosis Studies of the interaction of nanoparticles and immune cells in the context of infectious diseases Synthesis and evaluation of …

His research group at UWC focuses on the application of nanoparticles towards the treatment of tuberculosis, especially to achieve immunotherapy, targeted drug delivery and/or access across biological barriers. He has published several articles on nanomedicine in high impact factor journals and supervised several postgraduate students.

The broad goals of the Dube laboratory are to develop and apply chemical approaches to better understand the role of sugars in human disease, and to target unique sugars for therapeutic and diagnostic purposes.
