About
Dr. Eliza Kessler is a pioneering researcher in advanced drug delivery systems, with a specialized focus on developing single-injection vaccines and pulsatile-release platforms for global health applications. Her work addresses critical challenges in vaccine compliance, particularly for rabies post-exposure prophylaxis in low- and middle-income countries, where multi-dose regimens pose significant logistical burdens. Kessler’s major contribution lies in the fabrication of pulsatile polymeric microparticles that can encapsulate antigens and release them in timed bursts, mimicking the schedule of multiple injections from a single dose. This innovation has the potential to revolutionize rabies prevention and other vaccine programs requiring booster doses. Her most-cited paper, "Fabrication of Pulsatile Polymeric Microparticles Encapsulating Rabies Antigen" (2023), lays the groundwork for this transformative approach, demonstrating proof-of-concept for a technology that could save thousands of lives annually. Though early in her career, Kessler’s work is already recognized for its translational promise, bridging materials science and infectious disease control. Her research exemplifies how engineering solutions can directly address health inequities, making her a rising leader in the field of controlled-release biomaterials.
