Research Update!- Materials Science and Computational Modeling

In my endeavor to create better delivery mechanisms for toxic chemotherapies, I explored different materials that could be both bio-compatible and effective at drug diffusion. Hydrogels are 3-dimensional polymer networks that are water-based, making them not only bio-compatible, but their diffusion modulable. However, with my expertise mainly lying in biochemistry and biology, diving into materials […]
