Dr. Charles Linder is a research professor at Ben-Gurion University in areas of supramolecular chemistry and polymer/macromolecules for drug delivery, and microencapsulation and membranes for water treatment. Dr. Linder, together with Drs. Sarina Grinberg and Eliahu Heldman, invented V-SmartTM technology, which he continues to develop. Dr Linder was a senior scientist at Hoffman LaRoche and developed oral drug delivery systems with high bioavailability.
