It was a pleasure presenting the research happening in our lab at @ChEnected in Orlando, FL on (1) 3D printing of in-situ gelling hydrogels and (2) YBG microparticles prepared by pressurized gas expanded liquid tech as inhalable therapeutics for pulmonary fibrosis #aicheannual

[Matt Campea, PhD @MattyCPhD]

Thank you for a wonderful week @CRSScience at #crs2023! Was an absolute pleasure discussing the latest in drug delivery technology with other engineers and pharmaceutical researchers. And a big thanks for the poster award alongside some outstanding presenters!

Congratulations to Matt on his first (of several...) first author paper from our group! Check out his work on the use of nanoassemblies of ultra-small starch nanoparticles to address size challenges in the delivery pathway of cancer nanomedicines.

[Matt Campea, PhD @MattyCPhD]

This one feels good: my first EVER first author research article! Big thanks to @HoareLab @AndrewLofts1 @xufei_eng Meghan and Mina for all your hard work!

To celebrate this time of peace and joy, we (1) stole gifts we liked better from each other white elephant-style and (2) tried to drive each other off a go-kart track. Peace and joy indeed. Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays/Happy New Year to all!

[The Hoare Lab @HoareLab]

Congratulations to Chloe Dawson @Mac_ChemEng for an outstanding Master's defence on her work creating multi-layer and aligned electrospun hydrogel nanofibers that can directly integrate cells (coming to a journal near you soon!) The happy face balloons just keep on coming!
