Welcome to the bright side of nanotechnology and skin research!   

Welcome to the research group of Prof. Dr. Cornelia M. Keck in Marburg.

Novel research:


    Smart formulation principles for improved drug delivery


  • smartFilms
  • Tablets made from paper
  • Plantcrystals
  • BioMorphs

    Biopharmaceutical characterization


  • predicting the oral bioavailability with ex-vivo gut model
  • determination of dermal penetration efficacy of active ingredients with ex-vivo skin model
  • determination of antioxidant capacity in physiological fluids & skin
  • characterization of bio-physical skin properties (hydration, elasticity, TEWL, etc.)

   Research for better sunscreens


  • development of highly effective and safe formulations for skin, eye and enviroment
  • ex-vivo models to predict influence of sunscreens and sun on skin, eye and the enviroment
  • test models for assessing the water-resitance of sunscreens in real-world conditions
