Prof. Matin research interests include Translational cancer research which includes constructing exosomes that specifically target the HER2+ve cells and tumors, as well as several C1-C2 based reporters for effective visualization of the targeting specificity, delivering functional DNA by exosomes to recipient cells, in loading the exosomes with mRNA encoding the ChrR6 enzyme; mRNA being superior for gene delivery than DNA for reasons such as the fact that mRNA is expressed without the need for transfer to the nucleus.
