Happy to share our latest review paper published in @Biomacromolecules! This review highlights how stimuli-responsive materials have been used to promote the immunomodulatory potential of stromal cells by controlling their secretory activity. Adrianne Rosales pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…


Our fifth edition of LatinXChem will officially start in some minutes, and everything was possible thanks to our category organizers and our amazing technical committee. Kudos to them for all the effort in this edition!! #LatinXChem24


If you’re into surface science, hydrogels and droplets, come to today’s poster session (T508.b) at @MicroTas2024 - Tue Oct/15! We’re exploring artificial cells to study tissue forces. This is a collab with my colleague Christina-Marie Boghdady at Christopher Moraes's lab McGill University


Interested in investigating metal-NHC reaction dynamics in real-time with mass spectrometry? Look no further than the Scott McIndoe lab's newest charge-tagged ligand, ESIMes. Preprint available on ChemRxiv: doi.org/10.26434/chemr… #realtimechem


Thrilled to share that one of my PhD projects Chemistry@UVic has been published in Inorganic Chemistry ! Huge thanks to my supervisor Lisa Rosenberg and our collaborators! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

APPLY now for the Gordon Research Conferences on #Microfluidics (& GRS for postdocs & grad students) before we fill up! Dr Amy Herr (UC Berkeley) is our highlighted speaker this week. GRS application: bit.ly/4fEkrN2 GRC application: bit.ly/4fLIb1N Polly Fordyce Miguel Xavier


Congratulations to Harvey Harvey Kyle MacKenzie for presenting his final PhD talk at Graduate Student Research Day! UVic Science Chemistry@UVic



I'd like to share that my poster presentation won 1st place at the UVic Excellence in Graduate Research Symposium! Thanks to UVic GSS for organizing, and UVic Libraries and Robin Hicks at FGS for funding and supporting graduate student research! Ian Manners Research Group Chemistry@UVic


Apply now -- Katherine Elvira (she/her) and I are co-chairing what will be an amazing Gordon Research Conferences on #microfluidics next June in Italy! Super excited to hear from amazing speakers like Amy Herr and others :) grc.org/physics-and-ch…


Obviously part of this great 2024 was the co-organization of LatinXChem together with Francisca J. Benítez, kudos to all our amazing team ever!! This awesome edition would not be possible without you


Kicking off 2025 with a paper published! This collab btw Dr. Willerth & Katherine Elvira (she/her) explores atRA’s effect on smart bioinks. Proud to share co-first authorship with Maria Hangad, my undergrad mentee during my PhD at Chemistry@UVic. Full paper below👇 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ma…
