Check out our new review on the uses of biomaterials to enhance cellular therapies! Biomaterials have the potential to both alter cellular phenotypes and alter cellular kinetics and biodistribution.
I am very excited to announce that I will be joining the Mechanical Engineering department at Stanford in 2024! My group will focus on designing new therapeutic devices with dynamic properties to make medical technologies more accessible, less invasive, and more effective.
Please retweet➡️The Langer/Traverso labs at #MIT are hiring! We're looking for a technical associate to join our team in developing ingestible therapeutic devices. You'll be working with a multidisciplinary team, including @jmigueljd and myself! 🦠💊

I'm happy to announce that I've been awarded tenure @stanford@StanfordMSE! I'm so very thankful to all of the @AppelGroup members past and present for helping to build a vibrant, creative, collaborative, and fun community within the lab. What a day! (1/2)
Here we collaborated with soil scientists and botanists @CalPoly SLO to study three (poly)phosphate-based wildland retardant formulations. We evaluated their resistance to weathering and analyzed their seasonal impact on soil chemistry following application onto grass. 3/n
Preventative treatments of locales that are known to be at high risk of ignitions with wildland fire retardants can potentially prevent a majority of #wildfires from starting in the first place. 1/n
Just out in @EnvSciTech! @antcyu@StanfordMSE strikes again with new work assessing the seasonal impact of (poly)phosphate-based fire retardants on soil chemistry following the prophylactic treatment of vegetation to stop #wildfire before they start!!

Consequently, these entropy-driven crosslinks can lead to mechanical properties that remain invariant to temperature increases. In this work, we use modeling and rheometry to demonstrate these phenomena in a polymer-nanoparticle system.

Thank you Eric for being such an inspiring mentor over these past 5 years. You’ve built such a great environment to work in and I’m really going to miss everyone in the group!
Congrats Dr. @antcyu on the successful PhD defense today! What a stellar presentation spanning your work dissecting the fundamentals of dynamic polymer networks to engineering new materials for biomedicine and wildfire prevention.
Our paper on a stable insulin amylin co-formulation for diabetes management is out! This study wouldn’t have been possible without the help and support of the entire @AppelGroup team!
SPC is hosting a virtual poster session today! We'll be posting posters and video presentations from polymer researchers in our community. You can vote for a favorite poster here: https://t.co/Y4Uf9203T3
