Engineering approach combines drugs to control parasitic worms
European Pharmaceutical Review | October 05, 2017
Researchers have developed an experiment that demonstrates an engineering technology – which can quickly identify potential drug combinations that are effective on a small-animal model organism. The experiment could lead to further work that produces effective treatments for parasitic roundworms, or nematodes, that contribute to disease in people and livestock, said Santosh Pandey, an Associate Professor of electrical and computer engineering at Iowa State University.
