Abstract Surface-initiated polymerization is a unique way to produce thin, functional polymer films. As polymer chains are grown from surfaces that are modified with initiators or chain transfer agents to mediate chain growth, this process ensures a …

Abstract Many drugs or drug candidates have physico-chemical characteristics that are unfavorable to the passage of the biological barriers that separate the site of administration from the site of pharmacological action. These mechanical, …

Résumé Self-assembling polymer-based nanosystems, particularly polymer micelle-type drug delivery systems (PM-DDS), have emerged as powerful platforms for the smart delivery of therapeutic agents. Constructed through the spontaneous organization of …

Abstract Amyloid fibrils interact with metal ions via metal-ligand supramolecular interactions whose energy is of the order of tens to hundreds of KBT. The occurrence of the 20 essential amino acids in food-based amyloid fibrils derived from inexpensive …

Abstract Our lab has pursued development of methods to allow selective incorporation of diverse functionality into synthetic polypeptide materials. Specifically, we have developed synthetic methods that allow a robust variety of modifications to …
