Schulz group delivering a new publication. Huge congratulations to Dr. Gillian Kropp on her work designing polydopamine-antibiotic composites for catheter coatings. We thank @VTChemDept, @vtcsom, and @CarilionClinic for collaborating on this work! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Polydopamine‐Antibiotic Composite Coating for Antibiofilm Applications

Antibiotic-loaded polydopamine coatings are developed to combat biofilm-forming bacteria on catheter surfaces. These coatings strongly inhibit Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm formation on diverse...

We're so excited to share our SEC-MALS tutorial review published in @PolymChem! Along with @SchulzLabVT, a fellow lab group @VTChemDept and @VirginiaTechMII, we hope this review helps all polymer researchers gain confidence in using this technique🧪 pubs.rsc.org/en/content/arti…

Been a bit since our last tweet, everything looks... different? We have a new article to celebrate. Our 3rd year student Gillian has published her first article in @JMaterChem! Includes special appearances by Ophelia and @_WRArcher! Check it out!! pubs.rsc.org/en/content/arti…

Polymer–nucleobase composites for chemotherapy drug capture

Intravenous chemotherapy (e.g., doxorubicin (DOX)) is standard treatment for many cancers but also leads to side effects due to off-target toxicity. To address this challenge, devices for removing...

We intended to get a group photo with Dr. Schulz holding his Mentor Award. Unfortunately, someone forgot (purposely?) to bring it. That's okay though, one of us has gotten pretty good at @inkscape .
