The founders’ goal with Tamarind is to make drug discovery more accessible

This week on The BioLOG Show, I get to speak with Dr. Pashuck of Lehigh University! Pashuck Lab focuses on developing cell-responsive biomaterials for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Join me in this insightful conversation where we talk about the biomaterials industry, biomaterials superpowers, and the lab’s most recent publication on Peptide Diversification. Thank you

Brace yourself for a journey into the realm of additive manufacturing (AM) of biomaterials—a technological leap that is reshaping the landscape of healthcare as we know it. Biomedical products are no longer constrained by traditional manufacturing methods such as injection molding and plastic joining. Additive manufacturing opens up doors for increased freedom of design, mass

Overshadowed by bacterial and viral infections, fungal pathogens claim the lives of over 1.5 million individuals each year, while infecting a staggering 13 million people annually. Similarly, their treatment and the meager funding for fungal research often languish in the shadows. But, as we forge ahead, adapting and inventing new preventive medicines, fungi too evolve,
