Out now in Biomacromolecules: Our latest work on self-assembly AND RROP, now combing them into biodegradable NPs. Including biocompatibilty and release studies. Thanks to Yiyi (Yiyi Deng) for all the work and Elisha Krieg + Sebastian Seiffert for the collaboration! pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.102…

Merry Christmas from the Taresco Group!

Professor Mike Brook from McMaster Chemistry & Chemical Biology McMaster University Congratulations on this award. We look forward to seeing you IUPAC Macro2024 Conference-University of Warwick

We wrote this SEC-MALS tutorial review with just a few critical equations and illustrated key concepts through actual SEC-MALS experiments. A 1st or 2nd year graduate student in polymer chemistry/science was our envisioned audience, but we hope it will be broadly useful.

Two happy students. One Friday one today passed their vivas. Thanks to Loic and Matt for their time!! Daniel Keddie Neil Cameron

We need your help! Our old roller has reached the end of its life, and we need a new one to deliver the best cricket for our adult and junior members. We are crowdfunding £10,000 to pay for this investment. Everything is appreciated: crowdfunder.co.uk/p/new-roller-f… #crowdfunding

Every little bit helps. 👍

Training on grass wickets has a huge impact on development. Our new Sunday Development team helps junior players transition into adult cricket & we want to extend the square to provide the best training conditions. A new roller will make this possible. crowdfunder.co.uk/p/new-roller-f…
