Research
Focus
- Dr. Felner has three areas of research emphasis, all related to the prevention and/or treatment of diabetes. The first focus involves work with Mark Prausnitz (Professor of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering, Georgia Institute of Technology) and colleagues at the Georgia Institute of Technology to study the use of hollow microneedles as a mode of insulin delivery in children with Type 1 diabetes. Dr. Felner has effectively delivered insulin, with less pain, and with a more rapid onset of effect in animal and human studies.
