Faculty across Drexel are applying groundbreaking cell and gene therapy research to treat a broad array of illnesses including neurodegenerative disease, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and HIV, as well as across a spectrum of debilitating injuries to the spinal cord and kidneys.
Late last October, a team of researchers from Drexel University descended upon Longwood Gardens wearing high-tech headwear and other gear as part of an innovative study to measure the degree to which our brain responds to nature. This project is one of a series between Drexel and Longwood that began during the pandemic and continues today. The collaboration between Drexel and Longwood, facilitated by the Drexel Solutions Institute, underscores how the University’s work with external partners is often multidimensional.
