Dana Niezni (PhD student)

Danna Niezni received her B.Sc. degree in Materials Science and Engineering from the Technion, Haifa, in 2020, and her M.E. degree in Biomedical Engineering from the same institution in 2021. She is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the Technion.

Her research during both her M.E. and Ph.D. studies focuses on polymeric stabilizers for nanoparticles and advanced strategies for complex cancer treatments.
