Elucidating the role of lipids in fibrotic capsule formation at the surface of implanted medical devices.

University of Nottingham School of Medicine

Implanted medical devices are crucial in healthcare, valued at around £400 billion globally, however there is a high failure rate, often due to the foreign body reaction, where a fibrotic capsule forms around the implant with associated inflammation, loosening and infection. Read more

Healable Polymer Materials

University of Reading School of Chemistry & Food

The past four decades of science have witnessed how chemists have learnt from nature, in part by trial and error as well as elegant design, to understand and master the use of weak non-covalent interactions and self-assembly processes in synthetic systems to realise complex multi-component assemblies that exhibit attractive functionalities.

Targeting glycans on the outside of cells, as new therapeutics

The University of Manchester Department of Chemistry

Most drugs have intracellular targets (proteins etc). This creates a barrier to how to target a cell, and then get the drug inside the cell. Read more
