About

Mubashar Rehman is a leading researcher in nanomedicine and nanotoxicology, whose work critically examines the safety and therapeutic potential of engineered nanomaterials. His most cited study, "Nanotoxicity of Inert Materials: The Case of Gold, Silver and Iron" (2016, 75 citations), challenges conventional assumptions by demonstrating that materials traditionally considered inert, such as gold and silver nanoparticles, can exhibit significant toxicity at the nanoscale. This seminal contribution has reshaped how the scientific community approaches nanomaterial design for biomedical applications, emphasizing the need for rigorous safety assessments alongside therapeutic development. Rehman’s research spans the intersection of nanotechnology, biotechnology, and medicine, with a focus on understanding how physicochemical properties of nanoparticles influence their biological interactions. His work has been instrumental in advancing safer nanotheranostic platforms—combining diagnosis and therapy—for diseases including cancer. With a growing citation impact, Rehman continues to influence both fundamental nanotoxicology and translational nanomedicine, making him a key voice in the responsible development of nanotechnologies for healthcare.
