The iBEST Visiting Lecturer Series is proud to welcome Dr. S. Rahima Benhabbour, Associate Professor in the Lampe Joint Department of Biomedical Engineering, for a compelling talk titled “Ultra-Long-Acting Delivery Systems: Engineering the Next Generation of Multi-Purpose Prevention Technologies (MPTs)”.
