Dr Sally F. Shady obtained her doctorate from the University of Massachusetts (UMASS) in biomedical engineering and biotechnology. During her doctoral research, she investigated the synthesis and characterization of core shell nanospheres encapsulated with antibiotics which were implanted into a contact lens. She later developed a drug-embedded fiber used for periodontal disease. She continues to research alternate drug delivery techniques to transport therapeutic agents to biological tissues more efficiently. Dr Shady has also worked in industry as an engineer designing and developing medical devices for several years. She currently teaches and conducts her research at Stevens Institute of Technology in the biomedical engineering department. Her teaching interests are in biomechanics, biomaterials, and enhancing medical device design through undergraduate curricular pedagogies.
