Awesome spotlight on Noah Eckman by Stanford Engineering Stanford University!! engineering.stanford.edu/spotlight/noah…

Awesome Stanford Office of Technology Licensing (OTL) spotlight on Appel Sauce Studios, who is commercializing the injectable hydrogel depot technology we've developing over the past few years @stanford Stanford UniversityMSE: otl.stanford.edu/about/about-ot…

Congratulations to Prof. Guosong Hong (HongLab), who was awarded the ETH Materials Research Prize for Young Investigators! Your hard work and dedication to is truly commendable. Read more: tinyurl.com/4zpj3w7v

Using these measured profiles, we developed a new model for the fluid velocity profile, and used it to predict injection force for our materials. Unlike existing methods, it was able to predict the observed monotonic trends!

Check out Noah Eckman’s recent paper in ACS Publications Macromolecules! Really cool insights into the flow behaviors of gels and their injectability.

Just published the lab's 100th publication in ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces! This work further characterizes our wildfire gels. The LA #wildfires caused widespread destruction and displacement, and severe economic losses, highlighting the urgent need for better technologies. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Fun fact… this work grew out of Paxton’s middle school science project looking into how well various gel technologies work at different levels of simulated evaporation. It turns out our PP gels dramatically expand the window for wildfire defense.

We evaluated the retardancy window for gel technologies across different evaporation stages occurring after treatments are made. We determined the duration, effectiveness, and governing physical mechanisms of our unique gel system, showing they work even after 75% evaporation!
