Congratulations Iqra, recent #Commonwealth CSC in the UK PhD group member with Basit Yameen at LUMS Pakistan LUMS, on publishing our joint paper on enhancing antibody binding by surface nucleated NPs, polyphenol coatings & BSA co-deposition! pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…
Lot's been happening since the last post... for one, we recently won a The Leverhulme Trust Doctoral School grant to explore a new area in NIA -> Nature Inspired Acoustics! strath.ac.uk/whystrathclyde… (apply now for our 4-yr PhD! lau-lab.com/positions)
We are also recruiting a 4-yr Medical Research Scotland PhD with Terumo Aortic to develop multifunctional polymer #biointerfaces/#biomaterials at Chemistry - University of Strathclyde with antimicrobial and other cell-directing abilities. Apply at lau-lab.com/positions!
We're hosting ScotChem's 3rd #Polymer & #SoftMatter conference Jun 13-14 University of Strathclyde Chemistry - University of Strathclyde covering also #bioinspired #nanomaterials #biomaterials Submit abstracts by May 24!
