Dr Nicholas Hunt is a senior lecturer in the School of Medical Science at the University of Sydney and leader at the Biogerontology laboratory at the ANZAC Research Institute. His research interests centre around the development of new nanomaterials for use and translation in clinical medicine. He has worked on the development of quantum dots and organic nanoparticles for biological applications including the transportation of pharmaceutical agents, biologics, RNA and gene therapy.
Dr Hunt is co-founder and CEO of Endo Axiom, which will be taking these therapeutics to clinical trials.
Dr Hunt's research has been supported by the Australian Diabetes Society, the University of Sydney, the Sydney Medical School Foundation, the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC), the Medical Research Future Fund (MRFF), Therapeutic Innovation Australia and the Caenorhabditis Genetics Centre.
